W'apow mu e, 

 

Danny's cough seems to be a little better today.  He went to school armed with cough drops.  He made it through the day.


Joe has been wanting to get some chickens and goats.  Today, he got some of the materials to put a fence up.  After school, the boys were helping him square off the area where they are going to put the fence.  

 

Gilbert's teacher's birthday is tomorrow.  Gilbert wanted to take cupcakes for his teacher's birthday.  So, I made cupcakes today.  I found a cake decorating set here a couple weeks ago.  I used it for the first time today.  I had fun with it.  I made a little cake with the leftover batter.  I guess the kids haven't had cake in a while because they really thought it was good.

Danny is on the countdown to his birthday.  "Only eleven more days, Mom!"


The boys were messing around in the office, and Danny knocked the iron off of the ironing board.  The iron broke, and water was pouring everywhere.  Danny felt bad and was crying.


Bonnie came and climbed in my lap at 8:00 and went to sleep. They don't always get a nap in at school.  


Nantsew yie!
