Lost in Translation
Tonight, while I was giving him a bath, Ian asked me a question. I couldn't understand him, so I asked him to repeat it. He did, but I still didn't catch what he was saying. I asked him to repeat it again. This went on for a few minutes, back and forth. Finally Ian turned to Colin, repeated the same question, and Colin translated what Ian had said. When Colin told me what Ian was asking I couldn't believe I didn't understand what Ian had been saying. It was so obvious. Good thing Colin was there when I needed help, I didn't even know he knew a foreign language.

And when you talk to them, it's, "wah WAH WAH wah," not, "wah wah wah WAH."
whatever you say Brett, what I want to know is what did Ian ask you?
I'm with Nicole, what was the magical question?
Is the white bottle the conditioner?
Evelynn does that... like after I ask Owen to repeat something a few times, she'll just impatiently repeat it to me so I can understand without even looking up from what she's doing.
