W'apow mu e,

Well, we had another good day. Gilbert woke up and came into the

kitchen while I was making breakfast and anounced that he was so

excited becasue mom will be home in three days!

The last day of school has been anounced! (Africans don't plan very

far ahead.) Bonnie gets out of school on Tuesday and the boys get out

of school on Thursday. The boys were not very pleased with that

anouncement! Bonnie on the other hand could not quit rubbing it in

thier faces!

I went to the post office. We had a package from Mrs. Lydia! She

always sends such nice stuff. The kids were so excited because she

sent some insulated lunch bags filled with all kids of stuff. Sun

glasses, flashlights, candy, slim jims, socks, and lots of other

stuff! Thank you so much Mrs. Lydia!

A show comes on tv called "Finding Bigfoot." For some reason, the

kids just love to watch that show. They have some doctored footage of

a "big foot" walking though the woods. Try to convince the kids that

the pictures are fake!

Laura leaves Idaho at 05:30 to head to OKC where she will spend the

night and then she leaves OKC on Saturday to head HOME! We are going

to go to the airport in Accra to pick her up on Sunday after church in

the morning. The kids are already trying to pack their snacks to take

in the car.

Nantsew yie!
