Vraiment????


Our amis are going well. Florence will and should have a baptism date this week. She really like the church and all the people are really nice to her. Aurore and Bruno are new but she is ready for a baptism date and he is a quiet guy and we cant get a good read on them. but they are both ready for baptism. We have samuel after that, he is our dmps son. He is prolly now the most ready he has ever been to be baptized. He has taken his time, but he wanted to know if it is true, just like I did. So I cant blame him on that one, and I can relate. The ward is amazing. If it was bigger it would be like a smaller utah ward. The people are solid and really like us and even feed us usually. We eat at Bens house basically every week. He is the one who fed us for Christmas....cavair, oyster, duck!!! It's all good here.

Ce qui est celui? C'est le genou de mon fils!

What exactly is this picture you ask? Well, it is the result of a "tweaked knee" in France. Random swelling, strange pain and a kick to the back of the knee resulted in this odd photo. One MRI at the American Hospital in Paris = synovium inflamation. Possible fixes = cortisone shots to see him through his mission, biopsy to figure out why, surgery or all three. State of mind of the missionary with the bum knee = positive and determined. State of mind of the mother of the missionary with the bum knee = a wee bit worried but glad he is a tough kid with a missionary tag who keeps on doing the Lord's work! C'est la vie, oui?
