I want to learn my language so BAD. A friend referred me to a Lakota language app which is probably the closest I’ll get for the time being. It’s a start right?
I wasn’t raised with any cultural background really, and from my own research I’ve found that sisseton wahpeton speaks the Dakota language, but I haven’t found any other resources than that.
When I was in labor my sons grandma on his dads side(she’s older) kept commenting on how tired I looked. Like no shit Sharon, I’m birthing a baby and I’ve been in labor all night.
Last night my family sat around and laughed, talked, reminisced, and laughed some more. Although we were missing the most important person, we made the most of our first holiday without her and I know that’s what she would have wanted.
