Bonjour,

Joe took the kids to school.  Joe did some work on the computer.
I cleaned out a cupboard and did some sorting.
Joe measured our mattress today and went to the carpenter to have a bed frame and headboard made.
The third phase of the power came back on about 11:00 this morning.  This evening, the power went off again for a while.  One phase stayed off for an hour or so, but all phases are back on for the moment.
The kids had a good day at school.  They were ready to go outside and play when they got home.  Bonnie was going to stay at the house and not go up to the Luthers, but she decided that she wanted to go up there too after a little while.  Joe and Thumper walked Bonnie up the hill.
Nobody had homework tonight.  So, they watched a cowboy movie with Daddy but mostly just played.
Pray for the Cretzman family, missionaries to Cuba.  They were in a car accident today, and their three-year-old daughter was killed.  Mrs. Lana Cretzman is still hospitalized.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
