At times Junior stumps you with the most simplest of actions.
With all the temples being closed or restrictedly made available, it has been a really long while since any of us went to temple. And junior has been on absolute house arrest for last 6 months not venturing any where beyond the main gate. In fact very rarely only he even steps out of the house. Going to be real tough when the schools re-open. After a really long while, my sister decided to take him out for a near by Pillayaar temple. He was super excited and immediately wore a mask and got dressed. Usually when he take him to temple or even at home, while praying will always ask him to pray that, he should eat well, behave properly and shouldn’t beat anyone etc. Today after coming from temple he was jumping around as usual, having been let out of the cage after half an year. He was immediately explaining what he did and how the trip was to anyone who wasn’t part of the troupe. I asked him what did he pray to god.
He said “Thank you”
“Illapa..enna pray panna”
“Thank you sonnen”
I thought he was getting confused over the question and asked “vera enna sonna”
“Thanks than sonnen” came the response.
I became more curious and asked “edhukupa thanks sonna?”
“ummachi vanthu daily good food thararla..adhaan”
That kannula jalam moment :)

By the way asking him to pray that, he should eat well, behave properly etc is fair. But why on earth "shouldn’t beat anyone" ????
