Hello Frances! Thank you very much for your comment. I completely understand. We have so many blogs to follow and leaving comments is not always easy. Anyways, I think personal inteaction: talking and reading and discussing about everything that comes into our minds is the best thing to learn a language and to keep it alive and interesting. Language is the way we connect and bond with people. – I loved your carnival-post and am still writing on the ebook. I’ll surely let you know when it’s more or less ready (I’ll need some people to proof read it first ;-)). Have a lovely evening/day xxx Ute

I always enjoy reading your posts, though I rarely comment (due to lack of time). Anyways, reading has been an excellent source for language learning for our son, and reading your comment on the strong emotional bond that it creates excites me more! 🙂 Thank you for submitting this post to last month’s multilingual carnival! http://discoveringtheworldthroughmysonseyes.blogspot.com/2013/10/raising-multilingual-children-blogging.html
