quadri-lingual?

welcome to my life now that new nanny is here.
this is what i do, while they play.
kidding. i play with them too.
sometimes.



now, i know this looks like a lot of words. 
but just read it.
so you can have a headache, like i do now.
----------------

i swear i was speaking like 50 different languages today.
first, i have to speak baby talk to the baby.
and i have to talk pretty slow for the thai girl, sarah, to understand me.
which is a whole new language in itself.
and the cleaning lady was here today.
who speaks spanish.
i'm alright at spanish.
so i carried like a 10 minute conversation with her.
which turned into like an hour. literally.
but when you know like 3 words in spanish..
they think you are fluent.
so they go off and off.
all i could say was "o si" after everything she said.

but wait.
theres more.
cleaning lady went back to cleaning.
and i was so caught up in spanish that i started speaking spanish to sarah.
and a mix between baby talk and spanish to baby.
do i really think they are going to understand me?

so then i had to get back in english mode.
aka baby talk.
and slow talk.

golly. i have a headache just thinking about it.

oh, and on top of everything, i keep asking sarah to teach me words in thai.
its really cool.
but i dont think that is helping the cause.

ay ay ay caramba.
or should i say 
ใช่แล้วใช่แล้วใช่แล้วมะเฟือง
