I know it has been a while since I have written a post. I have had my hands full with my own little lingo. My beautiful daughter, Tali was born January 25th. She is the sweetest little baby and I never imagined that I could feel such intense love so instantly.
In these two short months, I have been reminded on a daily basis how difficult it is to raise a bilingual or in our case trilingual child. Given our families, we are teaching Tali English, Portuguese and Farsi. We know that language development begins immediately so we have been talking to her and have asked our families to speak to her in the three languages since day 1. The strategy we are trying to use is each adult is primarily responsible for speaking in one language. And yes, each of our family members have been given a specific language assignment (Aunt Allison gets to speak English, Tia Re Portuguese, Grandma Giti speaks Farsi etc. etc.). I’ve been speaking to her in all three languages, reading books in Portuguese and English while Patrick is trying to stick with the Portuguese. The truth is, it isn’t always easy to keep a continuous monologue going and it gets even harder when you are trying to do it in another language. After a night of very little sleep and a long day, when Patrick comes home from work, sometimes we just want to speak to each other without having to make the extra effort to do it in Portuguese. But we won’t give up because we know how important it is to teach her more than one language. We know that this is a gift that will literally last her a lifetime. I knew it would be hard, which is why I created GoGo Lingo in the first place but of course, we haven’t been able to develop Portuguese or Farsi yet. Hopefully one day soon. In the meantime, I am just grateful that Tali is finally here and I am able to even have this challenge.
