This is a Spanish World

Ty's preschool is entirely in Spanish (except half the kids are American, so they speak English with each other). He loves his teachers, Monica (think MOE -knee -ca) and Pamela (Pa -MAY -la) and he's learning a ton of Spanish. I asked him the other day about one of his friends, if he was American or Costa Rican. He didn't know. So I said, "Does he speak English or Spanish. He still didn't know. I asked if he understood him when he talked, and he said, "No, Mama, his voice is in Spanish." So cute that he doesn't SPEAK Spanish, but his VOICE is in Spanish. And then the other day at the store, I asked him what he needed to say to the man checking us out. He said thank you and when I reminded him he needed to say it in Spanish, he said, "Oh yeah, Mama, it's cause this is a Spanish world."

Oh, and Sam started medicine for parasites today. He's had an upset stomach off and on for over a week, so now we have medicine. I'm so thankful for a good doctor here at the school! Es la vida - living in the global south!
