Bonjour!

We have heard that some of you have not been receiving all of our e-mails. We are not sure what the problem is. So, we are going to try sending them from a different e-mail address. If you would like to receive the days that you missed, please let us know which dates are missing. We will be glad to send those to you. We have been sending one every day as usual.

Gilbert is definitely feeling better today. He has been full of vim and vigor.

I did some more sewing this morning. Joe put up a few more curtains.

This afternoon, Gilbert and I took a nap. Then, we went into town. I wanted to get some stackable plastic drawers for the boys’ room. We had seen some at the Children’s World store. We went there first. The only set that they had was faulty. We checked at several other places, but we didn’t find any. The guy at Max Mart told Joe where he can find some in Accra. So, he will look there when he goes to pick up his Mom from the airport in eleven days.

Joe fried fish for supper. We still had some in the freezer from what one of the church members gave us.

This evening, I have been working on papers for my class. Joe has been entertaining Gilbert. Tomorrow will be a power off day; so, I am trying to get as many of my papers done as possible.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, and Gilbert
