About La Mother Tongue


La Mother Tongue is my medium to share the joys and challenges of being a new parent as well as to share how we make a conscious effort in our daily life to bring baby up bilingual.

¡Feliz Día de Independencia Colombia!

Playing for Change, "a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music", decided to take Carlos Vives’ song, Tierra del Olvido, and have 80 diferente músicos record it and together create one fantástico video musical for Colombia.  Take note of the diferente instruments, the diferente colors of skin, woven hats and colors of buildings.  They feature a varied representation of diferentes partes of the country.  I feel like every one of the vistas used to be my old hangout!  Hmmm…one day we all will be able to visit our “homes” again!
Enjoy!

¡Feliz Día de Independencia Colombia!

4 de Julio



Feliz Dia de Independencia! Ours was very low-key as we just arrived home from the playa that afternoon.  So our little asado was attened by just the sun-tired beach-bums and a few felines.  Chef Paco diligently attended to the carne. Miau!

The food was deli and tipico Summer asado treats!

The only felina however, to actually eat the carne, however, was the tierna Gatita Sofia!
What is a Día de Independencia without a little fireworks and
an enthralled onlooker!
¡Feliz Día de Independencia!
