Good to hear that you finally have your pass in your hand. You will never speak as well as the people who spoke French from the beginning of their lives, I remember when Aileen starting working in a huge office in Houston and she's very intelligent and has climbed up the ladder quickly but at the time she was having issues with her computer, even reading it by scrolling down was not comfortable to her and she couldn't understand how this young assistants who weren't that smart could move around faster on the computer than her, and we figured out that they never knew at time when they weren't on a computer, it was inbreed in them, just like VCR's or should I say DVDs. I still prefer reading off of paper than a screen and even if you are totally fluent and lived 30 years in France, when you would get very tired you would probably start speaking English because you think in English. I'll never forget the time Grandma was staying with me when Olivia was born and we were up in the middle of the night exhausted and she started talking to me in cajun french without realizing it. The best part was when she looked at me like she was expecting me to answer, I remember we laughed. I am rambling sorry. It is cold here but the house is quiet, I love you, aunt connie
