Bonjour,
Our morning started quite early once again. This time, the bottom fell
out of Danny's bed. Gilbert came in to tell us about it but fell back
asleep before he told us. Danny came in to the room. Joe rocked him
and went to put him back in bed and discovered that his bed had come
apart. He tried putting Danny in Gilbert's bed, but he got right back
up. It took awhile for Danny to wind down again after his rude awakening.
When Danny woke up, I went to get him out of bed. He said, "Big bump,
Mommy." He wanted me to know what his bed had done to him.
We went with Lenell up to her apartment to check on things before we
headed to Abidjan. We did our bulk shopping today. We ate lunch at a
Lebanese restaurant.
On the way home, we stopped at the paint shop. Our vehicle was
finished. It looks very nice. (I took some pictures; I'll send a
couple later.) Joe drove our vehicle home. Lenell and I followed in
Matt's vehicle; Lenell drove. I'm not that brave!

The Posts came just after we got home. All of the boys went swimming.
Gilbert and Danny both came in after awhile because they were cold.
Danny fell asleep. Gilbert went back out to watch them swim. When
Daddy got in the pool, Gilbert came back in to get his swimming clothes
back on.
Margie came over to fellowship with Jennifer and me. They took turns
holding Bonnie. Then, we went on a walk. Lenell had gone up to check
on her apartment. She got back in time to go on a walk with us. As
soon as we got back from our walk, the Posts left to get back home
before it got too late.
The boys were both tired this evening, but they didn't go to bed any
earlier than normal. Joe wasn't feeling very well; so, he went to bed
early. Bonnie is still up. She was swinging quietly, but she is
letting me know that she wants Mommy now.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
