Shannon told me you`re sending Jessica to an after school Chinese language program. Yes, we want to make sure that she has a chance to use Chinese on a daily basis. I think it`s great that you`re doing this. There are several languages in my background, but note of them were passed on tone. Really? What languages? Well, my mother`s parents were English and German and I think my father`s parents were from Mexico. You`re not sure? No! I asked my dad where his family came from and he said he didn`t really know. In fact, I`m not even sure what his last name used to be before his family changed it. I know his father spoke Spanish but he wouldn`t teach it to his kids because it might inhibit their English. What a shame! I think so, too. I wish I had learned another language as a child. It`t more difficult as adult. http://vk.com/club70961925
