*SNORT*

Actually, my aunt speaks to her in Spanish at times, and French as well. She had spent 20+ years of her career in Spanish speaking countries and it is practically 2nd nature to her. In July the 2 of them went to a Japanese Art Deco exhibit at the John Ringling Museum and my aunt was duly impressed by how much my daughter was able to translate.

One set of my grandbabies are getting English, Cambodian (their grandparents on the other side), and Spanish. My grandsons (granddaughter is too young to evaluate) are very comfortable with modern electronics of all kinds, and adapt quickly to new equipment.

Grandpa makes sure they know what a trebouchet is, why it is important, and can rebuild the model that I gave them. That set, at least is getting a good education.

The other poor grandkids are in California. Lord help 'em.
