Sweet Somethings...

For few minutes the room was enveloped in silence.
I was quick to notice the rare luxury that usually welcomes itself in the hours when my mini monster tires herself to sleep. Needless to say kids decide that for themselves these days. Maybe it's just a different crop of chromosomes erupting. (Laughing...).     
As I look around the room I find her sitting on the floor staring blankly at a distance, to the spot where we have set up her play area. It seemed she was analysing the space. 

I stood confused coz her playzone looked perfect for her taste - with her toys strewn all over the floor except where they should ideally be, blocks of different shapes and colors thrown around like abandoned pieces.      
I kept thinking, what could be horribly wrong to subject her to this silent sulking.

Just then, her solitude breaks with TV running one of her favorite numbers. She quietly stood up and energetically resumed her run for the song.

 I thought may be the dormant excitement shook up finally. Just as I was to turn away with a shrug, I noticed to my surprise, she stopped short at her play area by the edge of the carpet which lay turned like a dog ear. She straightened it up. Evened up the ruffled fibers on it and neatly placed her Minnie Mouse on top.  
It would go too far to expect a two-something to go to a length of displaying organisational skills. But if you're witnessing any of such little gestures, your parental drilling, does not stand wasted after all.
