Which one is most suitable ? Or is it all?
I know kids could be observant and the living proof is Jillu. But she really surpassed herself a couple of days back and absolutely stunned us all ! I didn't know she could be this observing, understand, relate so fast, remember and reproduce at the right time as well!
That morning, we were hunting around in her cupboard for a new dress for her and she was obviously watching the proceedings (she abounds with a lot of new dresses and she gets to wear a new dress on any and all occasion and the occasion was my dad's birthday) . I gave it to my dad so that he could help her into it.
And what does she do? Even before he approaches her, she says
"Kongamam thadavu" (applu kumkum onto the new dress).
There is this traditional habit of applying a small tinge of kumkum or turmeric to a corner of the new dress before wearing them. This little girl who is not even 2 yet, has observed this being followed on previous occasions, understood it and now here she is, telling us what to do!
I am simply amazed!
