The thing my boy comes up with

So Joel was talking to his grandma telling her about him getting hurt and how we might not make it over tomorrow for the bbq but he was speaking in Spanish.

My boy looks up

Dad can you understand Papa when he speaks in Spanish

No I can't

Oh cool

Why is that cool

I'm going to learn Spanish too so I can say bad words and you won't know. He smiles proudly.

Joel looks up from his phone call
But I'll know what your saying.

Oh man I didn't think of that! His smile fades away

My mom's parents were French. They refused to teach their kids French though. They said this is America and they will speak English. Of course whenever they wanted to have a private conversation it was always in French.

@Musicman Joel's grandmother speaks English very well but he didn't want the kids to know how badly her hurt himself. He doesn't want them to worry over nothing.

@Cigarguy101 Yep! That's why he had a private conversation. From talking with my grandparents you would never know they were from France.
