I have read Lina Gardiner's GRAVE NEW DAY and I think it's way better than the Twilight saga books.

Hi Renee-ann ... Glad you're liking the blog. Thanks for the encouraging feedback! And thanks too for the kind words regarding my son. Conor-the-kins and I really do have fun together.

Renee-Ann - that's incredible! I'm so jealous. I wish I had that kind of facility with languages. I know several people who do, and like you, they know many languages. They seem to be able to pick up other languages with ease. I saw my friend Pamela Clare post in Thai for a Thai fan. One of her amitions is to write a book in Danish one day. Can you imagine???

Ok, I'm hooked. I logged in to check "one" post, and have been clicking "NEXT" since I commented on the first one I read.

Heather, this is a very touching and remarkable post. Conor looks so happy and so do you. It is amazing how the smallest thing in life (such as a water balloon) can make a kid happy.

This makes me wonder why some parents allow their kids to sit in front of the TV/video games for days on end when they could be outside playing. (I know of such a mother and she wondered why her son had no friends!!!). I'm not saying that TV and video games are bad, but thay can be if no limits are set.

Thank you for sharing your story. It is truly heart-warming.

Interesting blog and song!

I am also fascinated with languages. I was raised in a French community, learned English as a child, Spanish in High School, Sign Language for the fun of it, Hebrew in University, and finally, Shona (dialect in Zimbabwe) when I went overseas as a short term missionary.

I am fluent in French, English, and Sign Language. I understand written Spanish well but if you ask me to carry a conversation, you will lose me quickly (unless you’re willing to speak very slowly).

But being fluent doesn’t mean I don’t make mistakes. I do get corrected with my pronunciation at times!

One expression that drives me crazy is when people put ‘T’ at the end of the word ACROSS. For example, “I came ‘acrosst’ this book the other day.” How in the world did the T end up there?

One thing that always makes me smile is when my co-worker puts an L at the end of idea. She too is French and yes, that’s one word that, for some, is hard to pronounce. Don’t ask me why, it just is.

It’s like the letter U. For us French folks, it’s very easy to say. But for the majority of English folks, it is pronounced OU as in 'you'. No big deal! Hey at least people try and that’s the main thing.
