Joe went visiting this morning. They had some good visits. Most of his
class showed up for visitation this morning.

The vehicle is running better but is still smoking sometimes. The fuel
pump that they put on had just been sitting for awhile. So, the
mechanic said to drive it for a couple days, and it should stop smoking.

Danny's new thing is to climb inside things. He climbs inside the toy
box in his bedroom, and then he can't get back out. He just makes noise
until someone comes to rescue him. Today, he sat down in the dog's
water bowl. I guess he needed to cool off a little.

Gilbert was trying to get Danny to stop doing something today. He was
saying, "Enough more, Danny!" Danny didn't know if it was enough, or
if he wanted him to do it some more; so, he just continued doing what he
was doing.

I worked on financial reports today to get things ready for taxes.

Gilbert and I went for a walk this afternoon. Danny stayed and played
with Daddy.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, and Danny
