Bonjour,

This morning, Margie came over to help me do some packing while Joe went
to Anyama. When Joe got back, Margie took all three of the children
over to her house for awhile. We were able to get the boys room packed up.

We got busy packing and forgot about it being lunch time. I made a
quick lunch. Bob and Margie brought the kids back over, and they ate
lunch with us.

This afternoon, the children and I took a nap. Then, I started packing
up the things in the bathroom cabinets.

Missions With the Consfords

These daily journal entries document the Consfords’ missionary life across Ivory Coast and Ghana.

The boys don't quite understand time yet. Gilbert wants to know how
many more naps it is before we go on the airplane. When he wakes up
from his "short nap," he asks if we are going yet. Then, when he wakes
up from his "big nap," he asks again.

Danny and Gilbert were taking turns wheeling a suitcase around the
house. Gilbert said that if he practices, he can do it all by himself
at the airport. Bonnie knows that something is going on with all of
this packing; she keeps Mom in her sights.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
