Сибмама - о семье, беременности и детях

[Сладкий]

Hi everyone!!!
I have two sons, the older one is 4, the younger one will be 7 months in three days. And now I am babysitting at home, naturally.
In the past I finished the university, Foreign languages department, worked as an enterpriter for three years. And, to tell you the truth, afraid to loose my skill.
If there is anybody of the same problem, let's try to help each other and may be chat from time to time in English. I have some books in English also, so we could exchange, may be .
Waiting for replies!

i think somewhere in the past we already tried starting a topic ENGLISH...but it didn't go well unfortunately...maybe this time it will work...

Nice to hear that someone at least can speak english and nice to hear that there was an attempt already. Still, I think we can find topics to discuss. For beginning, here is a joke:
The wife said, "I want a tooth pulled. I don't want gas or Novocain because I'm in a terrible hurry. Just pull the tooth as quickly as possible."

"You're a brave woman," said the dentist. "Now, show me which tooth it is."

The wife turns to her husband and says: "Open your mouth and show the dentist which tooth it is, dear."

Ladies,
I just discovered a digital subscribtion to my favorite magazines. www . zinio.com

I am a loyal subscriber and there is a nice option - I can grant access to single issues to anyone, just give your e-mail address. You will have to download a "reading" s/w and presto - your issue is downloaded.

Send private messages.

natasha_p, thank you for your generous offer.
I didn't quite understand - you can grant access to a single issue of any one particular magazine?
Which one(s) do you subscribe to?
Also, what size (approx.) is a single issue, and what size is their "reader"? Internet traffic is quite pricey
I'd like to take a look at "American PHOTO" and "Popular Photography".

Hi! May I join? You can see my name on the left, my baby's name is Andrey, he is two and a half years old.

This is a really good idea to have a topic like this. These days I try to support my English mostly by watching movies and TV shows like Scrubs and Lost (btw Skaters forever! ), but real conversation is totally different. So is anyone else here is watching one of those?

Rita, I was wondering what exactly is so difficult about taking a baby to UK?
