Asher's teacher today told me that he and his Spanish speaking friend Eloy from Argentina speak in their own hybrid language. Asher points to the cat out the window and will say something like, "Gato. Gwack spool gato." Then Eloy runs over and checks out the cat and responds in turn, "El gato gwack su piel." It isn't true Spanish or English and it isn't spanglish either. It's a crazy toddler gibberish spanish hybrid language.

Yes, I know. Asher's hair is unkempt and too long in the picture. He looks like a surfer dude with salty hair. But you'll be happy to know he had his hair cut 3 weeks ago. MK
