The Grinch

Ok- just had to post this little tid-bit:

We got the good old Dr Seuss cartoon of The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and Eli has watched it probably 10 times. He enjoyed it immensely, but now he found out that you can change the languages and has been cracking up listening to it in French! Everything anyone says is just hilarious to him! Try it sometime, you may find a joy you never could have imagined!

He has taken quite a liking to other languages lately- Kaija came home from school the other day with some Chinese phrases which he repeats at very random moments. On another occasion last week when my van was in the shop and Joe was out of town (alas more repairs; both vans are good now, but the pocket book is still a little sore), we had to use Joe's van to run errands. Eli was just delighted that he had been listening to his Norwegian Book of Mormon tapes, so that is what we listened to all through town- he sat very still and just listened. Perhaps this one will be a linguist; one can only hope!
