Filipino Curious George

Ever since my son was in my uterus, I read to him. Yesterday I checked out childrens' books from the library. The little guy is only 8 weeks old so I try to find stories that are short and that I enjoy reading. Since I love monkeys, it only made sense to get some Curious George books.

My mother-in-law is so adorable... she reads the stories to him and puts her on spin on the stories. For example, when Curious George was eating pizza - she taught my son that vegetables (gulay) are better than pizza, and he should eat that instead. So for a couple of days she kept asking him "You want pizza or gulay?"

Today she read another book to him, but in Tagalog. I love it. I'm crossing my fingers that my son will be able to understand and speak Tagalog :)
