Bonjour,

This morning, Joe went into town to run some errands.  The kids and I did some things around the house.  Gilbert wanted a cleaning project.  So, they washed the windows and cleaned the bathrooms.  Then, we did a Bible craft.  We also worked on some reading.  Gilbert made it all the way through one of the little readers and was so proud of himself for reading the whole thing.  I got some laundry done.
After naps, I worked on supper.  The gas bottle ran out right in the middle of supper preparations.  Joe got a different bottle hooked up, and I was back in business.  I made lasagna tonight and tried a new French Bread Roll recipe.  Then, we got ready for church.
The church service went well tonight.  There were eleven in attendance.  One family who usually comes was not there this evening.  Brother Evans had a sister die suddenly, but he was at church tonight.  Pray for his family; he is not sure if his sister was saved.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
