Strange Things are Happening

Imagine yourself riding in a car when from the seat directly behind you, you hear your 3 year old daughter singing a song in Romanian with perfect accent and you don't have a clue what she is saying. When you ask her what the song says, she replies, "I don't know tell me." And you say, "I don't know either." Olivia is phonetically repeating what she is hearing. She doesn't know the meaning of what is being said. The other day when we came home from school she was singing another song in English, but she sang it with a Romanian English accent. We deducted that it was an English song that her teacher had been singing to the children in her Romanian English accent. The accent went away when she stopped singing that particular song. It is fascinating to observe Olivia's language acquisition. She doesn't seem to struggle with a brain drain issue! We have almost completed one month of study and we praise God for the progress we have experienced thus far. He is faithful and He will see us through.
