After the drama of the Dentist appointment, I ( we- the kids and I) decided to go to a Mexican food restaurant for dinner tonight. They were relatively good, the wait staff is very courteous at the restaurant we went to- we've been many times before. They greeted me with Seniorita- which I think is so polite. I think our waiter might have thrown in a "Gracias" or something minor and then all of sudden Grant says very LOUDLY- "Hey Mom, He speaks Spanish! Isn't that cool!". I was really hoping at this point that the waiter wasn't offended because he was clearly bilingual. Then the kids started rolling their /r/'s and couting to 10 in Spanish in a loud voice. The waiter smiled graciously and walked away. It might have also helped that Grace refused to sit on the other side of the booth- so we all 3 sat on one side of the booth seat-- until Grace burned her finger on my hot plate- then she decided that wasn't a good idea anymore.
Grant also started throwing out any Spanish he had picked up from Dora and Diego. I was just hoping we wouldn't look like ignorant English speakers.... Atleast they think speaking more than 1 language is cool- I think.
