W'apow mu e,
Joe took the kids to school this morning. Then, he went to the dentist. He waited for about an hour before he saw the dentist. The dentist pulled the broken piece out. Then, he told Joe to wait for the bleeding to stop so that he could put a temporary filling in. Four hours later, the dentist came back to do the filling. Joe said that he fell asleep twice while he was waiting. He will have to go back in a week or so to have a crown put on that tooth. He is in quite a bit of pain, but at least he was able to get it repaired.
I worked on shortening some pants for Joe and Gilbert. I also worked on laundry, filtering water, etc.
The kids had a good day at school. Gilbert and Bonnie both had homework. When it came time to do the homework, Gilbert couldn't find his. After thinking it through, he realized that he left it on the table at school. I guess he will have extra homework tomorrow.

Danny has had a scab on his elbow for several weeks. Just when it starts to heal, he hits it and breaks it open again. It was infected this evening. Joe got it all doctored up. Then, Danny was sliding around and broke it open again. We put a big bandage on it and wrapped it up to try to protect it for the time being.
The kids were playing in the office and wanted it to be completely dark. They came running in to turn the living room light off. They thought it was great to have it so dark. Our power was on tonight, but the kids would rather be in the dark. : )
Nantsew yie!
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
