When Sumukh pilli drinks milkie/bubu, Krishna says Sumukh looks the cutest, with the most serene expression, contemplative, thinking his own thoughts.... Sometimes, one hand or a leg see-saws slowly..
When I look into his eyes, I see the world, it reminds me of the episode from Bhagavatam, where Yashoda saw the cosmos in little Krishna's mouth....
When Summu drinks milkie, two of us are in our own world. Everything that I see, I see in two dimensions- I see the real physical world in front of my eyes and I also see all this reflected in Summu's eyes... It's like sitting at the edge of a lake, watching the beautiful scenery reflected on the still polished surface of the lake. I feel like I am meditating...
I see his shiny black eyes.. In those eyes, I see my face, my chest, I see the top I have worn, his little chubby hand clutching at me, his plump fist against my collarbone... Behind me, the roof... If we are in the park, I see green trees, the rolling lawn, the blue sky, birds flying overhead... I see all this in my little pilli's eyes... I see two sets of all this in his two eyes... Sometimes that chubby fist opens and a curious finger rises, finding its way to my lips, trying to pry my lips apart & explore within, I can see that activity in the mirrors of his eyes... Other times, his tiny palm strokes my cheek...
When Summu needs to urgently express his love, he plants some milkie kisses- as he drinks milkie, he pushes his face into me & goes back, saying mmm, mmmm.. Those are milky kisses...
Sometimes, he's a hummingpilli, sort of like a hummingbird. :D LOL... My hummingpilli drinks milkie while humming me a tune- it goes mMmMmM, a song of love sung during milkie time... When I want him to hum it to me, I simply hum it and that reminds him, so he starts, we copy each other's tunes, we keep making up new tunes.. Sometimes this feels so funny to Summu, he bursts out in peals of laughter while trying to continue drinking milkies! I can see his chitti little tongue slipping out of the edges of his mouth that widens in a smile, his throat gurgling with laughter.
What I see with my eyes while gazing into my little pilli's eyes, I wish there was a way to record... Krishna says I need something like those Google goggles... I say, would some such technology be able to record what I feel in my heart, what I feel in my lap, the warmth of the bright morning sun, the cheer of the green trees?
That angle & height at which my head is placed when Summu pilli drinks milkie in my lap, it's a divine perfect setting where the baby looks the cutest, the best camera shots can be taken from this angle... I tell Krishna to please click, but those shots he takes look different, I need a miniature camera that should be operable with the blink of an eye, that I should be able to place just where my eyes are and click pics.. Alright, I know how crazy I sound :D
As Summu pilli's grown older, he's realized there are other exciting things he can do while drinking milkie rather than just stay calm contemplative. Milkie time is the perfect time to pinch mommy, or thump his tiny palm into my chest! It is also fun to twist around in mommy's lap, throw out a leg or arm & try to prod the nearest object with a leg (that object usually is papa), while drinking milkies, talk about multitasking!
The best bit of Summu pilli's childhood that I will forever ponder on fondly when he's older, is the milkie time...
