kuzhal inithu yaal inithu

Got reminded about a Thirukkural (Tamil couplets) this morning "Kuzhal inithu yaal inthu enbar tham makkal kural kaelaathavar" meaning "The flute is sweet, the harp is sweet," say those who have not heard the prattle of their own children. The past four days my daughter is saying "Amma" when she sees me :) (althou not everytime) She does babble quite a lot and its only recently that she is saying "Amma" as a single word...
