Multi-Lingual

I took 4 years of Spanish in high school and have kept some of my bi-lingual abilities, but mainly for work -- I can speak enough Spanish to do a swallow evaluation or a speech therapy session -- I am a speech therapist. My co-workers always ask me to translate for them, but I can't really do phyical or occupational Spanish!! Aaron took French in high school, and from what I've heard, he was/is able to converse with French-speaking family members. He is more of an introvert when it comes to speaking, so I am not priviledged enough to be spoken to in French. I have taught Payton to count in Spanish and have encouraged Aaron to teach her how to count to 10 in French....so, here it goes:

Wonderful to hear Payton counting in French--did I hear and Alsatian accent? Wishful thinking, I guess. Thanks for the note at the end--I was worried.
