More about the NZ accent:
1. Our babysitter pronounces her name as 'Amander'.
2. I was aware that our little boys are going to grow up with Kiwi accents. But I can't believe that it's happening already! Amiri corrected my pronunciation the other day.
So he has learned lots of songs in school--like, Row row row your boat, Old MacDonald, and Twinkle Twinkle. At home, we did a duet of his favorite song ('Tintoo tintoo, la-la-la') and he listened carefully as I sang 'Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are.' Then he said, 'No, mommy. Not starrr. Staaah. Aaaah.'
