And Joey Speaks French, Too...

At your "school" (a.k.a. day care center that we LOVE), they incorporate all kinds of great activities: yoga, music, and Spanish. This evening, you were showing off your mad language skills.

Molly: "Mommy, I can speak Spanish."

Mommy: "Really? What can you say?"

(Editor's Note: I don't speak Spanish... so the following is a phonetic translation.)

Molly: "Je blue blagga blue."

Mommy: "Um, I don't think that's Spanish."

Molly: "Yes it is. And the Spanish word for taco is burrito."

Mommy (to herself since Molly isn't really listening anymore): "Um, isn't the Spanish word for burrito... burrito?"

Molly (completely ignoring her Spanish-ignorant mommy and admiring her Lightning McQueen race car): "And the Spanish word for Lighting is race car."

Mommy: "Well, not really..."

Molly: "Blu zappa zing."
Mommy: "Ok, it's time for bath."

Molly: "Za kaching pow. That's Spanish for bathtime."

Mommy: "Right... when is Daddy coming home?"

(And the title of the post refers to one of my most favorite all-time episodes of the world's greatest sitcom, Friends. Here's the link. Enjoy.)
