I have always thought of penning down the interesting language Narayan developed and championed during the art of learning to talk. Due to a number of reasons (predominantly being lazy), never got to do it. But this one is something which I want to put down for my own records. Narayan has now come a far way from here which is making a sentence using the first syllable of the Malayalam words he knew (up at this point N was exclusively fed with Malayalam to understand and talk). From here he is now reasonably good with both Malayalam and English which I am really really proud of.
Back to the times when N was about 1.5 years and was still on breast feeds, we had visitors over and N was repeatedly telling me - "Amma, Koo Vaa Me Poo Paa Koo". No one had a clue except the S Nair clan at home. It was super fun and folks went rolling around and laughing when I translated it to human consumable format - Amma, Koode Vaa, Melil Pokaam, Paalu Kudikaaam!
I just miss it and all the fun with it when N is moving to the more civilised way of speech!
