Hard to understand

Do you, or did you, ever find it hard to understand what your child is saying?

**************************

Let me start off by saying our decision to go with a home daycare (vs a center daycare) has proved to be the best thing for our kids. Sole (pronounced So-lee) has proved to be the most wonderful woman in caring for our children. When I drop the kids off in the morning I take them to the door, hand them over and continue on my way to work. Austin walks in the door and doesn't look back while Abigail opens her arms to Sole as she's handed over.

Do you know how good that makes me feel?

When it's time to go home neither one of them is ready to leave. Most of the time Sole is holding Abigail. When she tries to hand her over, Abigail doesn't want anything to do with me. She clings onto Sole. Austin's the same way, he's never ready to leave.

Back to what I was saying...

Austin said something tonight and I couldn't understand him. He's speaking spanish! Sole is teaching him how to speak spanish. I knew she was teaching him how to count, but she's teaching him other words too! So far he can count to 5 (and then he jumps to 8) and just today he was telling me how to say up and down. Amazing. He is so smart!
