The United States is filled with people who speak more than one language. I have always found this to be a very cool thing. I tried to learn Japanese when we lived in Japan. I was never very good at it, although I could say a few phrases to get by. My older two daughters and my son, who were small children when we lived there spoke Japanese much better than their MOM.
Morgan learned a great deal in kindergarten. A couple of the things she learned thru out the year was sign language and spanish. Morgan absolutely loved these two classes. I have a great deal of respect for people who can speak more than one language.
I read in the news sometime ago about people wanting to say the Pledge of Allegiance in Spanish. I personally believe it should be said in English but with that said I don’t believe there is anything wrong with knowing how to say it in Spanish. (To clarify my above statement. I think the Pledge should be said in English at major events such as, government meetings, and at the superbowl. Nothing wrong with saying the pledge in Spanish at events where a majority of the people are speaking Spanish.)
Morgan saying (By the way, there is no way for me to know if she is pronouncing all the words correctly. I pray there isn’t a dirty word in there. 🙂 )

Yara,
Lets keep our fingers crossed she learns a little more spanish while we are in Arizona.
I don’t speak Spanish so I couldn’t tell if she was pronouncing the words right but I’m very impressed that she can speak Spanish at all!! Very smart little girl you have there:-) My first language is French, I was raised in a french household and went to all french schools…but now I seem to use english more often than french! lol Great job once again Morgan!!
That was good, Morgan…although I couldn’t understand a word of it…I don’t speak Spanish.
I believe English should be our nations official language…anything else spoken is fine, but everyone should know English.
Sandy, I think English should be the official language also….but I think being bilingual is an asset.
she just needs to work on corect pronunciation of the first line. everythin else was prety good.
