Meet Mathilde, our French exchange student. She arrived yesterday evening and is departing next Thursday, the 5th. We wanted her to experience some American ice cream so we took her to dairy queen. Although it was a struggle for her to communicate what she wanted to eat, somehow we managed to complete the task. We could not have done it without her awesome translator, Grace! So how is this a TDM? you may be asking...well let me confess. We dressed Mathilde, the real Mathilde from Baton Rouge, like a real French high school student would...or how we think they would dress! No she was not wearing nike shorts and a t-shirt like the rest of us..she was wearing a floral print skirt, a nice white lenin shirt, keds, and her hair pulled back with a big clip. Thanks to her three years of French education and her wardrobe, we knew this was going to be a success! TDM on all of our parts. Au Revoir!
