Danny lost his first tooth yesterday.  I forgot to mention it yesterday.  We have been hearing about that tooth for a week or so.  Daddy finally got it to come out.  Danny was so excited.

Joe and Dan did Bible Clubs this morning.  The kids swam for a little bit.  Then, they played outside while I did some sewing.  I am still working on curtains.  The kids went down to Bible Club with Dan.  Not as many have been coming the past couple weeks.
Thumper, our dog, is not doing very well.  He keeps getting more and more oozing lumps.  The vet came again today and gave him another shot.  Joe said he wouldn’t be surprised if the dog does not make it through the night.  We have not had great success with our animals so far.

After naps, Joe swam with the kids.  I worked on putting a wall decal up; it was like doing a puzzle.  
This evening, the kids watched Walker Texas Ranger with Daddy while I did some more sewing.  Bonnie came in to “organize” my thread for me.  The spools of thread became her students; several of them got in trouble and had to go to the office.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
