English or French?

Yesterday I took the kids to the library and they were so good! They each picked out a couple of books and waited patiently to check them out. Will was adamant about checking out a picture dictionary. I asked him if he'd like a story book instead, but he insisted on the dictionary. Then much to my surprise when we got home he asked for a blank piece of paper and pen. Then he started coping words out of the dictionary. I was so surprised to see him doing this - and he was so content. Then when I started looking over the words he had written down I discovered it was an English/French dictionary! And he was writing the English AND French words. Will is at such a fun stage. He's so eager to learn. We have lots of conversations about how things work, how to spell words and he's even doing addition and subtraction. It's such a wonder to watch children grow and learn - and even more so when they are your own children.
