W'apow mu e, 

Joe took the kids to school this morning.  I took it easy until my headache started to go away around 10:30.  Those migraines are not any fun.  

Joe took our car to the mechanic.  Something is loose again.  It is a wonder that things can stay in place on any vehicle here with the bad road conditions.

We had load shedding last night and were scheduled to have power today.  Just after I started another load of laundry this afternoon, the power went off.  It was off for about five hours.  It went off phase by phase; that generally means that they are working on something.  So, we will probably have our normal load shedding tomorrow.  

The kids had a good day at school.  The boys were happy to inform me that Bonnie was the only one who had homework this evening.

While the boys were doing the dishes after supper, Bonnie came in to ask me if we had any "t-roll."  (They call toilet paper "t-roll" at school.)  One of her imaginary students needed some t-roll.  The boys thought that was just hilarious.  They almost fell off of their stools because they got so tickled.  

Danny's new favorite thing to draw is maps.  He first wads the paper up to make it look old.  Then, he straightens it back out to draw on it.  He drew an old pirate map for Dad and an old Indian map for me.  Then, he had to figure out something that he could make which required using the stapler.  He is always busy with something!

Bonnie was pretending to be my teacher.  First, we had music time.  Then, we had Bible time.  She was asking me questions about creation.  I got all of the answers right; so, I got to give her a high five.

Nantsew yie!

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
