Bonjour,

This morning, we went to Abidjan. I needed to get laundry soap and a
few other things. Joe went to the bank while the children and I started
shopping. Gilbert likes to push the little cart around. Danny likes to
ride in the big cart as long as it keeps moving. I put Bonnie in the
pouch today.

After we finished at the store, we went to Akle for lunch and had their
yummy chicken strips. We tried to go to the place that sells cheddar
cheese, but they were closed for lunch.

Danny fell asleep on the way home. Joe tried putting him down for a
nap, but he wasn't sleepy. Joe stayed up with the children while I
rested for a little bit. After I got up, both Gilbert and Danny fell
asleep on the couch.

Joe got supper ready while I talked to one of my sisters on the phone.
Danny was awake, but we had to wake Gilbert up. It takes him about an
hour to wake up.

Joe is going to go to Bonoua in the morning to make visits with Dan.
The children and I are going to stay home tomorrow because we will be
going out to the Posts' house on Thursday as well.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
