Today was probably the most "normal" day we've had since Janice and the kids deserted us. We essentially did school work all day and I was able to get quite a bit done with the Welcome Center's accounting program.
Celine, our domestic help, made hamburgers and french fries for lunch today and that was a blessing. The kids and I gobbled them up in record time. We don't often get them so whenever we do we devour them.
The highlight of the day was seeing my sweet hearted 15 year old son sit out front with the Chadian kids and show them things in books and talk with them in French and Arabic. He's quite gifted when it comes to language. He was so kind and gentle with them.
The low point of the day was watching Esther suffer with some intestinal bug of some sort. Poor thing complained about a sore tummy and cramping all day long. She's was also running a temperature. It is no fun for the kids to be sick. It's doubly bad when mom isn't here to helpl them through the pain.
Until tomorrow.
