My Livemocha Journal Week 3

I'm a Livemocha guide AND a Livemocha Language Exchange Partner!!! How cool is that?!
Sometimes I think that I don't know as much as I do, but yesterday I was speaking to someone in Spanish and they knew what I was trying to tell them! I found out that I didn't say it exactly the correct way but I got my point across and was understood!!! I'm so excited!!
I have been saying a lot more things to my daughter and she is learning and understanding so much more!!!
I want to give myself a goal of becoming fluent by my daughters 2nd birthday next January.
I forgot to mention when your a Livemocha member not only will you be learning another language you can help others learn English (if you want to).
This week I worked on my Spanish probably about 5 days, I learned some new things,but mostly reviewed what I learned in the last few weeks. I printed some flash cards too!!!:) This week has been pretty busy just as the next 2 weeks will be for me....I might fill you all in on it at a later date!

My Future Military Man.

My son for a little over a month has been into anything dealing with the military. He says he wants to be in the "Army Force" :) He wants everything camouflaged and anything dealing with the Army. One of my little cousins left for basic training a few weeks ago and we wrote him this morning. My son drew a picture of him and himself with guns shooting the enemy. He also drew the "drill sergeant yelling and training them for combat.." I'm really proud of my little cousin AND my other little cousins who are now in the Military. I have a little cousin who is in the Air Force Academy in CO, a little cousin who just graduated Motor T School and is now officially a Fleet Marine and then this little cousin who just left for the Army. I'm so proud of them all and remember when they were little. I can't believe where they are now! I also have an older cousin who is serving as well. Oh and I can't forget about my cousins by marriage. 3 of my cousins ( I think it's 3 it might be more) are military wives.... I'm proud of them all and thank all of them for their service! My son says he wants to be in the Military when he becomes a man too he says. I found a site that has Army Kid Gear (called KIDS ARMY) as well! I would so love one day if I could get this for him..... (Click HERE to see). I also wanted to share some coloring pages we found online for any of you that know a little future Navy,Marine,Air Force or Army man :) I'm sure they would get a kick out of this! Thank you all who have served and who are serving!
