saying good morning
Toronto, 2011.09.15
This morning, The Boy refused to tell me 'o-hayo' (good morning). He came out of his room and saw o-kaasan, to whom he said, "o-hayo." She told him, "will you say 'o-hayo' to daddy?" "no," he told her, "i'll say 'good morning'." The nuance of growing up in a bilingual home.
