"I have an english brain"

This morning at the breakfast table, a conversation with Mika (4)

Me: So are you looking forward to Swedish school this weekend?
Mika: I don't think you understand mama.
Me: What don't I understand?
Mika: My brain is an English brain. It thinks English thoughts, not Swedish.
Me: Yes I know, but maybe there is room for a bit of Swedish in there.
Mika: I don't think so, it is pretty full already.
Me: Not even a tiny little space?
Mika: Maybe... I think I can squeeze in one word in there.. like godis (lollies in Swedish).

  2. What comes out sometimes is like the purest form of poetry!! Maybe not when they say things like, you do look pretty old today mama, maybe you should have a coffee? Haha.
