One month ago, I met my host family’s grandson and this 5-years-old boy is a real chatterbox ! He’s there almost every weekend so when I wake up, I don’t bother trying to make the conversation, he does it for both of us. As I’m shuffling around the kitchen, looking for the bread, he tells me a lot of stories. All the times I’m all ears but, to be honest, for such a young child, he speaks very well and sometimes I must ask him to repeat, explain, what I don’t understand.
Once he told me he had to teach me everything like to a baby. A bit hurted in my ego, I resolve to learn harder thane ver so that never again a child, who is not even at primary school, will say I don’t speak English properly.

That's very funny Barabara - children are so precocious. At least it sounds like you have fun chatting to him!
