Jest junior

At times junior really stumps you for an answer.
His aunt and himself were playing with balloons. He is fascinated by balloons and gets amazed at those floating things. Would beat the hell out of them if it is in his swinging arc is a different story.
Knowing his penchant of them, my sister had bought a couple of colored ones and was trying to blow them into funny shapes.
Watching her curiously he asked “Athhai..sudratha?”
She was confused and asked “enna sudratha kekkara”
He replied “Illa balloona ipdi oothindu irukiye..balloon sudratha? Naan aathi tharatuma”
We were laughing like anything at the sutta pazham analogy.
For those who couldn’t get the context do watch “Avvaiyar” movie and the interaction between KBS as avvaiyar and bala Murugan.

I still don't get it, but that's no surprise.

Please teach him how to pop balloons. Especially near you when you are deep in sleep.

Lovvely how they associate their kutty kutty experiences with how they explore the world - it is fascinating to see the world through their bioscopic eyes, isn't it? What perspectives they throw??!!

It is startling to watch their capabilities at making the connections from their perspective. As years go by, it may not be as simple as the "Sudratha ? " connection.

Got this as a forward. Made interesting reading and made lot of sense too :) check it out. Just two years after our marriage, hubby brought up the idea of asking mother to move from the rural hometown and spend her remaining years with us. Hubby's father passed away while he was still very young. Mother endured much hardship and struggled all on her own to provide for him, see him through to a university degree. You could say that she suffered a great deal and did everything you could expect of a woman to bring hubby to where he is today. I immediately agreed and started packing the spare room, which has a balcony facing the South to let her enjoy the sunshine and plant greenery. Hubby stood in the bright room, and suddenly just picked me up and started spinning round and round. As I begged him to put me down, he said: "Lets go fetch mother." Hubby is tall and big sized and I love to rest on his chest and enjoy the feeling that he could pick me up at any moment put the...

Review time again :)

The movie watchers world was split into two last weekend - Those who saw AVATAR and those who couldnt get tickets. Luckily i was in the first group :) YES! Seen tht movie...wwohoooo...that too in 3D...woohoo woohooo. OK. Hype subsided. Now to what the heck was that movie all about. First thing first. This is one movie where the producer cannot complain where in the world did they spent 2000 crores of his money. Well its not exactly "in the world" its literally out of the world!! As i came out of the theater i wasnt exactly sure whether i liked the movie or not. What was the fuss all about this being the mother of all movie going experience? The story was hardly new. Its the Lawrence of Arabia meet Red Indians (Blue ones rather as per the movie). Little by little it started trickling in. Hey..wait a minute..the entire movie is shot in some alien planet right!! Oh yeah...Then the realisation came. None of them is real!!!! 90% of the movie is graphics and is so goddamn origin...
