Bonjour,
We did not get an e-mail sent yesterday. I went to bed early with a migraine.
Yesterday morning, we went to the school to see if the material for the uniforms was in yet. It wasn't in yet. We stopped to see the seamstress who has done some sewing for us before to leave some material that I bought a couple months ago and to see if she would make the kids' uniforms when the material comes in. Then, we stopped at a Lebanese restaurant next to a grocery store. Joe ordered lunch while the kids did some shopping with me. We got a few groceries first. Then, we went upstairs to look around. They had a cheap magnetic dart board that we got for the boys. Danny keeps calling it a "tart board."
When we got home, it was nap time. After naps, Joe took the kids swimming. I had a bad headache but got supper made. After supper, I went to bed.
I still had the headache this morning, but it was starting to let up. Kristine was going to keep the kids while I went visiting with Joe. I rested instead, and she did some things with the kids. They made a chocolate cake and then made some notes for me.
Joe did not find many people at home this morning. By lunch time, I was feeling much better.
It was cloudy today but not raining. No one showed up for Bible Club; so, we did it with just our kids out on the porch.
Kristine made supper tonight. She usually makes it on Saturday nights. I won't know what to do when she goes back to Ivory Coast in September. : ) It has been nice to have her around.
Tonight after baths, Danny asked if I could get his Rony Tomo shirt for him. (Someone gave him a Tony Romo shirt that is way to big for him, but he likes to wear it to bed.)
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
