Inspired by our trip to France earlier this year and wanting to build on the language lessons Spencer receives on a weekly basis at L'Alliance Francaise, Spencer and I recently joined a French play group. Today we met at the home of one of the French mamas. It was so good for me to be surrounded by French speakers. My comprehension remains almost perfect although my speaking is far from that. It's nice to know that after so many years studying a language, I haven't lost it completely.
Spencer knows the alphabet, the colors and several numbers in French but does not yet speak any words or phrases. I'm hoping by being exposed to another language at such an early age, he learns the basics, at least enough to build upon later in life if he so chooses.
