Thanks for reading! Yeah, I’m trying to have a bit more of a personal touch to my posts, so you may hear more about my heritage and my kids in the future. I’m glad I’m not the only one struggling to juggle multiple languages with my kids ?

Sorry for the late reply, life has been throwing a lot of stuff in the way of my writing lately!

I love your China-themed post. It’s too bad that your Chinese never did become fluent – my sister lives in the US as well, and she tries very hard to teach my nephews to speak good Lithuanian. My older one is very good and fluent, although he does sometimes use broken grammar or runs out of words, but my younger nephew can’t really be called fluent. They can also speak Spanish though because of their dad, so their brain is pretty stretched for the languages lol.
By the way, I did try studying Chinese at once point, but the pronunciation tones got to me. It’s too hard when you’re not actually hearing it spoken around you. Was a fun language to try to learn though 🙂
