Bonjour,
This morning, Joe took the vehicle to the mechanic. He said that it will take three days to have it fixed. When they put the new head on, they didn’t grind the valves. The injector pump and the injectors also needed to be rebuilt. Charlie was going into Takoradi; so, he brought Joe home.
We did school this morning. Bonnie moves back and forth from one teacher to the other. She calls me “Teacher” during school, not Mommy. Danny had a cutting project; so, he was tickled about that. He loves to use his scissors. Gilbert had lots of pages today, but he got them all done.
I did a couple loads of laundry this morning. I got them out on the line after school was over. It started to rain this afternoon. I had to run out and rescue the dry clothes.
Joe went to Sekondi with Charlie this afternoon to run some errands. The kids went up to play with the Luther kids for a while.
The boys have been wound up tonight. They have been hiding from Bonnie. Bonnie told Grandma on the phone tonight that she was going to mail Danny and Gilbert to her. She is a mess!
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
