Kindergarten Insights

It has been really fun hearing all of Cait's stories and new little insights into life since she started school. One of my favorites is a recent conversations she had with a little boy in her class. For Auburn, there is quite the racial diversity in her class. On the first day of school I am pretty sure her teacher addressed this due to some of Cait's comments about her classmates being dark skinned or being able to speak spanish. Well, Cait is very intrigued with spanish. So Tim encouraged her to ask a little boy in her class how to say something in spanish as he has been a little shy. This is what took place when she got home:

"I asked Ignacio how to say "nice to meet you" today, do you know what he said? "Nice to meet you!"
I guess we were not clear enough that she had to ask him to say it in spanish!
