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.
