Bonjour,
 
This morning, Joe drove the vehicle around a little to make sure that it is running well.  He also got some plywood and put an exhaust fan in the living room window.  That helped to cool the house off a little.
 
It rained this afternoon.  That cooled it down too. 
 
The Post boys had their karate lesson this morning.  Gilbert and Danny watched for a little while.  They both came back showing me karate moves.  Danny was trying to show Bonnie how to do it.  She told him to let go of her arm.
 
The kids had fun playing with the Post boys.  Bonnie has decided that she likes Nathan, the oldest Post boy still at home.  As soon as she walks out the door, she starts calling, "Nathan!" 
 
I worked on putting the boys clothes away today.  I just have my clothes left to unpack.  Then, I can start sorting the things in our barrels that we left here.  As soon as I find my kitchen things, we will be in business.
 
We are going to the Anyama church in the morning.  Max asked Joe to preach.  Please pray for Joe as he preaches his first message in French after being on furlough.
 
A demain,
 
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
