The kids are saying more French words every day. Ella has different little expressions which she has picked up. It sounds great to hear them speaking French. Their accents sound like real French not like when Andrew and I say things. Ella comes out with a few phrases and words like voila (there you are), d’accord (ok), c’est finit (it is finished) and others. They've learned lots of words at school, numbers, colours etc. They cut out pictures and write the french word beside it in their books. Samuel doesn't seem to be absorbing as much as Ella which is surprising because he is so much more interested in being friends with everybody than Ella is.
Samuel's absolute compulsion at this point in time is Pokemon cards which he exchanges with the other boys at school. So he's gleaned enough language to let him carry out that one crucial activity in his life at the moment.
