Who would have thought?
So I was working in the bakery today in Thurm(small village near mine). Being not too thrilled as usual. Then this lady comes up with her little son probably as old as Brielan. Then her son says "cookie" and I was like, what? Where did he pick that up, because you see, no one here speaks english. Then she asks him, "do you want a cookie?". I was shocked. Then I asked in German, "sprechen sie Englisch?" And she said yes. Then I was like me too! And she said "how"? I said I'm from America! And you know what she sounded so American I thought she was too. It turns out she lived in America for several years and worked there as a teacher and she speaks perfect English. It was so much fun talking to her. It was a blessing from above. So we exchanged numbers and are going to try and meet again next week. She was so easy going like Americans, and not all proper and trying to everything in order like the Germans. It was so refreshing! I am so thankful that I was at work today. Otherwise I never would have gotten to know her! So that was the most wonderful thing that happened today! Yoohoo! I have a new friend!
