does tzarevich speak some french? un peu when he was bout 1, i taught him tu veux? allons y oiseux gateaux chapeaux so when the monolingual posh moms heard us in ny, they would ask does he speak french? moi: of course. next year, we start mandarin jajajajaja. you could see their faces. "oh shit, this is the competition to get into harvard or yale" we stayed w my friend coco in lyons & he picked up quite a bit & loved ordering diabolo menthes @ the cafe actually he studied spanish in middle school, then started portuguese. he was going to sao paolo for junior year abroad, but that thing called covid kinda interrupted many kids plans |

that is wonderful! I really think we're richer for speaking multiple languages... even if it's that we're only trying to speak another language. richer metaphorically speaking, of course.
