Great post! Those kids look so sweet! Girlll they are not playing about u learning Thai by March! You will get it though, it may seem overwhelming at times but you WILL get it. Being completely surrounded by the language helps tremendously. Omg, that purple cardigan with the green floral skirt u wore on Thai day....I'm gonna need that in my life so please make sure it is in your suitcase! Lol. Wishing you continued success and much love :) oh and don't be over there teaching those kids how to say, ”goooooo Dawgs!” Lol.
