Bonjour,

Joe took the kids to school.  He came home for a little bit and then headed to the dentist.  After waiting for three hours, he still did not see the dentist.  He is supposed to go back tomorrow morning.
The power was off for forty-eight hours.  It came back on at 5:00 this evening and then went off again at 7:00 for load shedding.  It just came back on at 10:00.  
I got some things done around the house today.
Bonnie had to go the office twice today for disturbing others during nap time.
We had another heavy rain this afternoon.
The kids were busy climbing the mango tree this afternoon.  After I told them that they would all probably end up with mango worms, they got out of the tree in a hurry.  Danny has had two mango worms in the last week.
After supper, the kids watched a movie with Daddy while I did the dishes and got things ready for lunches tomorrow.  When I sat down, Bonnie climbed up in my lap and fell asleep.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
