I know it’s nothing to get to excited about, but today, I had a real conversation with Jonathan. Even though he is only 2 and his vocubalary is much greater than mine, I could understand his 3 & 4 word sentences some of the time. His, Mom, Nancy helped me out a few times. We sat in the basement after BSF today and had lunch together. I stayed at the church with Jonathan, and his big sister- 5 yr old, Abbey, while thier Mom went to Mcdonalds for the kids, and to the sandwich /coffee shop to get our lunch. Abby & Jonathan are both – bilingual already, so while Nancy was gone, they helped me set up our chairs, they washed their hands, and I set them up with pens and paper to draw for me. They drew great taxis, vans, and busses for me. We discuss these in both Chinese and English. I really got excited later when Nancy took Abbey to the restroom and as I started to go put up one of the chairs, Jonathan said he wanted Auntie Fran to stay here with him. (In Chinese – I think I got all that). Then our grandest conversation included words I knew – He has a cup. His cup has ice. Yes, I know those words! I think I have a new friend.
