It’s a wonderful thing to know more than one language. My mother and grandmother came over from Germany and never taught any of us how to speak the German language. To their minds it was un-American. Times have changed but that unfortunate attitude persists throughout the country. Every time a school district tries to make learning a foreign language mandatory, parents seem to come out of the woodwork to stop it. Well I am all grown up now and nobody can stop me from learning whatever I want to learn and so with my own excuses being exhausted, it’s time to begin the joy of learning yet one more thing. Aint life grand?
