Taylor Is Fluent in French After 2 Weeks!

Taylor, Alisha and John Baptiste
Pictured above is Alisha (Canada) Taylor (Paris) and Jean Baptiste (Senegal). Jean Baptiste is the class interpertor. He is giving Taylor and Alisha lessons in French after dinner Friday night. Taylor also had a French lesson from Aloise while she was on her dish cleaning duty. Jean Baptiste needs to take a week off and feels confident that Taylor will be ready to serve as class interpretor by that time.
Word is getting around about Taylors incredible language skills. After I registered with the U.S. consulate in Dakar, they emailed and asked if Taylor would be the designated interpretor for any Heads of State visiting Senegal. Her mother and father felt she was too young at this time and declined.

Taylor, you must be the cutest interpreter in all of Africa!

How do you say "wonderfully diminutive" in French? That would be you :)

And Craig, not to split hairs but I think the word you were looking for at he end of this post was "deKlined"

Have a great day!

Hi TayTay,

We sure loved getting your message on the phone!! We play it over and over just to hear your sweet little voice. Dereck said next time he wants you to speak in French and then of course translate to English at the end.

We love and miss you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!! I will get Ali to get a blog to you soon.
