that's what ivan said to me when i told him to go put on his bathing suit. i love the way these kids translate from their language into english, using their own grammar. other phrases that make me very, very happy:
"can i hev?"
"i don't want"
"where i must go?"
"what we do?"
"can i put waterwear?"
"can i get photo machine?" (this was actually from a turk who is fluent in english, so we felt it was ok to make fun of her for this)
"i go horse" (from a russian who wanted to go horseback riding)
"when we shop?"
"where miguel is?"
"if i show you, promise you willn't tell?" (ivan wanted to show me his contraband goods...i don't know why this kid thinks i'm in cahoots with him.)
"sank you werry much."
i love this job.
ps. today rintaro sang "video killed the ladio stal"

One of our favorite songs at this house is video killed the ladio stall. It's a classic!
It's just like teaching 3rd grade grammar!
ladio stall. it's so sad they are all dead
I must have my sisters read this one. Especially Stephanie. She and her husband will love it!
