So sweet…Kyle is bilingual today (literally, in Buenos Aires for a semester). He got his start in Kindergarten, with German. 🙂

jajajajaja— that’s how I felt when I first saw my mom write “lololol” in Spanish. I was so confused and then realized it’s how we write it in Spanish. Of course, what your daughter was doing is something slightly different but in the same vain. So glad she’s picking it up! Being japi is a great feeling! No matter how you spell it!

I really enjoyed your post. It is great that your daughter is learning
Spanish and liking it, and also so good that you found this school for
her. It is not easy to speak another
language to a child in the US but it is important for her to learn
Spanish. When my daughters were born I
tried to speak to them in French, but my husband is American, and I gave
up. Now, years later they are not pleased
that I did not try harder (I did not find a school teaching French for small
children though.) What an advantage your
daughter has with you for speaking with her in another language.

She is so fortunate to have a bilingual momma…..my daughter has had Spanish every year of school….not the same but I think it’s important for kids to know another language. When we lived in Germany I was the only one I met that only knew one language….everyone knew minimum of 3!

Oh how I love this! My daughter is doing the same thing with English words. I love when she randomly out of nowhere asks me something in Spanish. I know that would not have happened if she weren’t in a Spanish immersion school.

I LOVE that she is learning SPANISH. This is her heritage. We should ALL know another language. Right? xx Btw, I do not!

In reply to deborahpucci. It was a not the easiest process to manuever, but I am thrilled we had a choice and got our #1 pick on the second try.
