Smile & Enjoy


Dear Son Savitur,

It's been a very long time, since I wrote last. You may never know, unless I write it here, this post was written for you after being awake the whole night.

I do not know the reason, and do not even want to know. The only single thing special about 9-Aug-2013 for me - It's the day on which you got rid of month old plaster on your right elbow. Yes my son, you broke your elbow a month back on 8th of July night around 8 PM.

Anyhow, I am actually not very sure of the emotions as of now. There is some sense of relief running very deep in the heart, so deep that it's not even showing up on my face.

All the very best Savitur, be safe, I will be around. keep smiling, enjoy life & giggle...

Your dad,
Hirdu

We both are kicked out of house by your Mom...

Story Telling

Dear Savitur,

The art of story telling is the very first capability you showcased and kept enhancing each night. I remember your progression each night, as you started following up the stories. You were around a year &  half old, when your eyes began to show glow, with the story line.

Stories for you were simple, as you started to add to the story - almost every story started as follows:

Me: एक बार एक छोटा बेबी होता है. कितना छोटा बेबी होता है ?
You: बहुत छोटा

Me : उस छोटा बेबी के एक छोटा पापा होते है. कितना छोटा पापा होता है ?
You : बहुत छोटा

Me : उस छोटा बेबी के एक छोटी मम्मा  होती  है. कितना छोटी मम्मा होती है ?
You : बहुत छोटी

and the story continues, to talk about bed, the sleeping room and many many other stuffs...you continue to listen and answer to all the queries about "what you did in the morning and in the afternoon". Each story use to become a real new one, with alternate characters, the plot and climax...Many times we never reached the climax, 'coz you slept in between.

As you grew to 3 Year young and start going to school, you started changing the story line with your own unpredictable inputs. बहुत छोटा use to convert to बहुत बड़ा at your will, followed by giggle...

Your Mom use to amaze at times on your imagination and choice of words.

As of now. Stories do start as they use to every night since last 2 years, however your answers are now unpredictable.

Me: एक बार एक छोटा बेबी होता है. कितना छोटा बेबी होता है ?
You: बहुत बला 

Me : उस छोटा बेबी के एक छोटा पापा होते है. कितना छोटा पापा होता है ?
You : बहुत छोटा

Me : उस छोटा बेबी के एक छोटी मम्मा  होती  है. कितना छोटी मम्मा होती है ?
You : बहुत बली

Anyhow !!! You are young and you have fantastic memory with the amazing will to narrate story. You are fond of "Doremon", "Shinchan" and the character - Action Kamain with his Action Beam. :)

You can recite Gayatri Mantra and repeat any Sanskrit Mantra after me - word by word. I know even Lord Himself might be smiling as they listen these Mantras coming in fumbling, mixed up (- तुतलाती जुबां ) lingo.

You learn to count to 20 already starting from Zero - which is different from most kids of your age, who count from 1.

so son this is a brief bio-graph about you at the age of around 3 Year and 4 months. 

Always remember to smile...smile is infectious...and whenever you feel the need of somebody around you - respire...with each incoming breath of air, you will find ME and My Lord himself near you.

Only Yours forever.

Savitur -

Dear Savitur...
You have already started showing your inclination towards literature. You were little lower than two and half years, when you edited your first poem.
1. Chennai Airport - Travelling from Chennai to New Delhi (sometime in July 2010) you recited the famous poem as follows :)
Jonny Jonny - Yes Papa
Eating Sugar - "Gudda Khaata" { गुड्डा खाता } [ Gudda (Your own name at home from your Mom) खाता (eats) instead of original text: "No Papa"]
Telling Lie - No Papa
Open your Mouth - Ha ha ha :)
2. This one is in hindi (Sometime in October 2010)
चुन्नी चुन्नी चुन्नी, रंग बिरंगी चुन्नी
जाली वाला सूट, ते निक्के-निक्के बूट,
केजी वन में पढता , सबको टाटा करता {original text: सबको गुड मोर्निंग करता}
I do not know how you edited & what triggered :). However I am sure that you have started comprehanding the poems and recitals already. You are way ahead from kids of your age in recognizing, learning and comprehension of whatever literature you can lay your hands on at this age.
I know in my heart that your interest in literature will keep on growing and you will yourself see as grow...
Enjoy the Joy :)
