How easy must be for a toddler to learn another language... I won't ever be 100% bilingual 'cause I began learning English when I was an adult and it's worth bearing in mind... You can't teach an old dog new tricks!! 🎉. Great Video and Greetings from Spain

It sounds like you are doing great, Jose! Thank you for your kind words :)

I just started taking Hindi seriously in our house. It's a language I've been learning for a few years and am not proficient but we have a lot of Indian friends that speak it as a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th+ language lol
But I'll tell him we will read in English (my husband and I are American in the states) and he gets mad bc he things it's something else lol
We also dabble in Spanish as we have a lot in our community. We have been doing ASL from the beginning and he is pretty proficient in that. It helped me get the confidence to do one I'm not as good in
It's also funny because he has shown so many signs of code mixing. It's so fun!!
