Kecil "said"

Kecil made another new friend again the other day, another boy whom we met on our walkies.
They played fairy well together, but the most interesting thing was their conversation.
Or rather, the lack thereof.

Imagine the scenario:

Kecil was writing on the sand, and the Boy, interested, followed suit.
As their drawing became bigger and bigger, the Boy started to get into Kecil's way.
And so...
Kecil : GRRRrrrrr!!!!!
Boy   : (looking a bit confused, but, sensing danger, moved away from her)

I find it interesting that instead of saying something more civilized ('excuse me' comes to mind), she settled on something so primal as a growl.
Of course, the message was definitely unmistakable, like that of the primal cave woman, perhaps.

We'll still make a communicator out of you, Cil!

As Kecil grows to be more and more articulate, Mama thought we should also set a side some space to record her 'speeches'. As you all know, Little People often makes the most insightful observations. And hence, we hope there will be a series like this, aptly named Kecil said ...

Mama and one of her sisters are very much alike. For many years, we have met with comments that roughly amounts to: "You two look so similar!", "You are very hard to differentiate", "You are like twins"
You get the gist, no?
But nobody summed it up better than the Little One that day, while she was looking at the photo wall above.

"That's Tante, that's Mama, that's Mama some more!";

Oh, she has a way with words, all right.

Cheers!
