Bonjour,

We had a good day at church.  I had eleven in my class.  Joe had ten in his class.

Toward the end of the church service, Danny started crying and wouldn’t be consoled.  He was very sleepy.  I was trying to finish up my story.  Sarah came to check on our class, and she took Danny.  She said that he wanted to sit next to her on the bench.  A few minutes later, she looked down.  He was nodding off and about to fall off the bench.  As soon as she picked him up, he went limp. 

The Litson girls rode home with us.  They enjoyed playing for a few minutes.  Then, they went home for lunch. 

We all got naps in today.  

The service this evening went well too.

A demain,
