Bonjour!

Joe took the vehicle to the mechanic this morning. He found out that today is a Muslim holiday, but the mechanic is not a Muslim and does not observe Muslim holidays. None of the part stores were opened, but they got the engine taken apart and found out which parts we will need.

Gilbert was “reading” to me this morning. Then, we played cars. He got a ramp for his cars for Christmas. He is figuring out how the cars have to be placed on the ramp, but he still needs help sometimes. He likes to push the button to make the cars go down the ramp. He says, “Push” and makes sure its okay before he pushes the button. Then, he cheers for the cars as they go down the ramp.
