Vincent has been exposed to English since his very first days as we always spoke English at home. Since some time we were noticing that he understand a bit of what we were talking about. But now the English issue became much more serious as he started the international school.
From the first day at school we could see that he was picking up a lot of words and expressions. He was asking about the meaning of words he heard at school.
But this weekend there was a break through... Vincent started speaking English. For the first time we had a conversation (all three of us) in one language :) We are used to hearing Vincent speaking 'foreign' language, but we felt so proud of him :) One month was enough for him to get going. We have tested him on various topics and he has impressive vocabulary as for 5 year old boy. He can even do the simple math in English :)
It is so funny when he initiate a conversation in English :)
Now we, parents have two important tasks to take care of:
1. Secure Vincents knowledge of Polish, Portuguese and Swedish.
2. Learn new language Vincent doesn't speak since English is not our secret language any more...
