I made a pact with my granddaughter's other set of grandparents that they only speak Spanish to her at thier house and of course we would only speak English at our house. She turned 2 on Valentine's day and she goes from one language to the other effortlessly. Now my husband and I are trying to get her for summers where she will attend German child care. See where this is going? lol.
