I am a horrible mother. I am so ashamed to admit that I have not taught my children any Spanish. It is honestly embarassing. I swore up and down that I would and I have slacked. It is a complete disservice to my children to be Hispanic and not speak Spanish.
I had no choice but to learn Spanish. Spanish was the primarily language at home and pretty much every where in town. It is impossible to survive living in a border town and not speak Spanish. But now my family and I are living in Bastrop way in the center of Texas, far away from all our Spanish speaking family. Now the only time I even speak Spanish is on the phone with my parents.
I need to try harder. J is only 6 and I hope it its not too late. Definately not too late for big T bone. This is a gift I would be sharing with my children and it would help them be better members of our society later in life. I will try harder. I promise.
