So..... we had a teachable moment this morning...
It is amazing to see the understanding click for Heidy and Andres...
This morning Andres was late to breakfast and Hiedy was taaaakkkiiing heeerrrr ttiimmmmeeeee.
I gave them 5 more minutes, and they were not finished.
Blah, Blah, Blah..... I will spare you the details but suffice it to say they DID eventually eat their breakfast... all of it... even cold scrambled eggs....
And we got to talk about the concept of stealing peoples time.
I explained that they stole Claudia's time because she had cooked for them, and my time b/c I was choosing to sit with them... and that Andres was stealing Heidy's time b/c it took him forever to finish the cold scrambled eggs and we waited for him...
When I say I "told" them about important things, I mean I use the computer to translate my typing. We call is "Bing" b/c it is the Bing translator.
It is funny b/c we call talking "blah, blah, blah..."
So if I am not understanding the children will literally say:
"Madre.... blah, blah, blah Bing?"
