Languages

I am in French class right now. I am not fluent in French yet, but I consider myself pretty good. As I am writing or speaking in French, I find myself stumbling over my words. And I think about children learning their first language. It never seemed as hard as it is now back then. Writing in English makes me wonder when I ever learned the different conjugations and verb tenses. It must have been so easy back then. It makes me wish that I had learned French when I was learning that quickly.
