A Spanish Baby

One of my new girlfriends here is pregnant, due to have her baby in just a couple of months or so. She and her husband already have two girls and are expecting a boy this time around. How exciting!

My friend was having a conversation with her oldest daughter (a 2nd-grader) when the child blurted out, "I wonder what it'll be like having a Spanish brother!"

What?

My girlfriend had to explain that just because they live in Spain, doesn't mean her baby brother will be Spanish. He'll be an American, just like the rest of the family.

Then my friend's daughter says, "Will he be able to speak Spanish?"

Well, I guess we'll all have to wait and see, won't we?
