El Gato

Karl and I had an interesting conversation in the car today (first time we've been in the car for a while what with the homebody streak he's been on lately).

He mentioned that it's very easy to speak English. And I said well it is if you were born into the English speaking world... there are many parts of the world that kids are born into which are Spanish speaking such as Mexico. He knows about Mexico from watching Dora and Diego stuff off NickJr. He said I wish I had been born in Mexico then I could speak Spanish *and* English. I love how he thinks... he wants the best of both worlds. So I said I've been to Mexico and that I bet he would love it, and then said I would show it to him on the map. Now's not the time at almost 8 pm and Karl is snuggled up in bed with a cold watching Winnie the Pooh. I can go one better than that actually if he's interested and show him pictures of my trip taken while I was in Mexico. Wish I had a scanner that works. Karl knows a few words in Spanish and our favorite that is pretty good for laughs is "el gato."
