I also wanted to share with you a beautiful and famous saying I received from my favourite Uncle (Tio) Anibal.

First, let’s talk about Tio Anibal. He’s hilarious and has such a great view on the world. There’s wisdom in his message.

Desayuno como un rey, almuerzo como un príncipe y ceno como un mendigo. (Dicho popular).
I eat like a king for breakfast, a prince for lunch and a beggar for supper. (famous saying)

Do you have a favourite Uncle Tio too? Shhhh, let’s not tell the other family members

Here are the words for this week.

Hint: Family members

Nieto y Nieta

These two words trip up a lot of people. Would you believe that when I started to create the sentence here, I got mixed up myself?! Yep! It’s a common mistake – even for me. jajaja!

Can you guess what this sentence means?

El nieto de mi mamá se llama Alexander y la nieta se llama Isabella.
