Bonjour,

Joe is feeling a little better today.  He started a treatment for a bacterial infection. 
Bonnie has pink eye.  It was going around at school before school got out.  We thought we had escaped without getting it, but I forgot about the incubation period.  Hopefully we can get rid of it before Nana and Papa arrive.
The kids are so excited about Nana and Papa coming.  Yesterday, the boys asked how many more days until they get here.  I said, "Seven."  Gilbert said, "Pick me up, Danny, because we are so excited."  Gilbert can't lift Danny; so, he wanted to Danny to pick him up.  This morning, they asked how many more days until Nana comes.  Bonnie said, "Well, Papa's coming too, isn't he?"
I did some cleaning and laundry today.  The kids worked in their bedroom for a while.  Then, they played outside.  They are having fun with their new toys.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
