Our kids are now speaking more Creole...because we're in Port au Prince and re-connecting with many friends. It's lovely to be here and to hear them speaking Creole!!!!!
I'm not going to write a thousand words but I don't have pics either : ( because our camera card reader just kicked it.
GABRIELA
"Hey Mama, now you can make a head thing out of an old mosquito net. Look, look at that Madame!!!!"
(The woman was wearing a muslin head scarf).
"I'm not going in. I don't like it when black people kiss me." (On our way to see a lovely long time friend, an older woman...Gabriela DID come in and when we mentioned to Lifèt that Gabriela did not want to be kissed she said, "no problem, a lot of little kids don't like that"). I DO love when kids come over they come over to me and say "Bonjou Esther!" or "Bonswa Esther!" and kiss me on the cheek.
NIKO
"I Love sugar. It's my favourite thing in my tummy."
He also says: "Bonjou" and "Bonswa" really nicely now. And loves to walk up to people slowly and then surprise them by jumping into their arms. Being of a very physical able culture that LOVES children, the receivers always catch him.
