More Spanish Lessons

LW has a weekly Spanish session with a woman from Argentina. Every lesson starts with him reciting a story from one of his picture books. Usually Michael helps him learn the story and I take him to class, but this week we switched.

I read a line of the story, and LW repeated it. Part way through, he turned to me and said in surprise, "You're getting better at this!"

On our second pass through the book, however, he decided it was time to work on my accent.

Me: Tres mariquitas, pero, donde esta el gato?
LW: Tr-tr-tr-tres (pauses to shoot me a meaningful look) I'm saying this for you.

As if there was any doubt.
