Rosita: Well...I unexpectedly got to babysit little Marco for Gina.Gabi was supposed to,but she got sick.I felt sorry for Gabi. But I was glad that Gina decided to call me! Oh ..Marco has gotten so cute! He's just learning to talk. Gina wants him to learn things in both English and Spanish. So with all his toys he picked up,I'd say the name in English and then in Spanish.
Very good Rosita! I'm glad that Gina has you to help her. Now Grover...what's new?
Grover: That Mr. Johnson at Charlie's restaurant is getting me nervous. Lately he's had a man with a suit and tie come in with him.And the man has a very angry look on his face. He's always writing things on a note pad. Charlie tells me to try my very best at getting Mr. Johnson's orders right. Otherwise I could be in big trouble! I do not want to lose my job!
I know you don't Grover.Just do your VERY best and that's all anyone can ask for.
