My dad was very adamant about my sister and I only speaking Spanish at home and for that I am so grateful! I was able to retain it and am bilingual. I'm trying my best to raise LO bilingual. She understands a lot of Spanish! No words yet, but no English words either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/celebrate-hispanic-heritage-month#post-1900041 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:51:06 +0000 lizzywiz 1900041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We live in NM and are steeped in Hispanic culture and love it! We are hoping to send our daughter to one of the public bilingual schools that does Spanish immersion.<br /> I guess I don't have any stories, really. Mantanzas and quinceañeras are just what we do here :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/celebrate-hispanic-heritage-month#post-1900000 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 06:55:21 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1900000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hispanic Heritage Month (9/15-10/15) ends tomorrow.
