Yesterday night was the first time my English-speaking baby has realized that i have an accent when i speak English. We were talking about Scooby Doo and i was saying something about his friend Wendy when Leo said:
-Mommy, its Wendy, not Vendy.
-Thats what i said, Leo, Wendy.
(Looking at me with amusement) No Mommy, its Wendy!
-Yes, Wendy.
(Starting to laugh) It Wendy Mommy!
-Thats what im saying! Wendy!
(Leo, bursting out laughing) Wendy Wendy Wendy!!!
(me,irritatedly) Wendy Wendy Wendy!
Leo laughs so had he falls off the sofa and i stomp into the kitchen. Its tough being a foreigner! Even your own 4 year old laughs at your accent.
