I sit on a high perch. I assume and often believe I could teach my 4 year old what to think and inturn shape and mold. There is an assumption that I know more, not only in some, but all matters. I am only humbled by what a beehive of a Brain these youngsters are gifter with, something I neither possessed or lost some where on the way.
He asked me one day what a "singleton" was. For a programmer by profession this was a daunting challenge to answer correctly. Programmers have gained and lost large sums based on their answer to this interview question. Well I was quite sure a 3 year olds brain is not yet clouded by such concerns. So I have patiently, having some background where he was coming from, explained that when you stand alone, when you are not with your friends, when you are one that stands out, then you could be called a "singleton" as it happened in the movie "Sandlot". "Singleton" hasn't arrived into my vocabulary before mid 20s.
He patiently listened everyone telling him Red means stop and Green means Go. He patiently waited for the car to follow the mores. And lately he has been wondering lately whether he could wish "red" was "green" and "green" was "red". I asked him what he means. Well we could go when it is red and stop when it is green. That doesn't make him upside down kid I have reasoned.
He found a little toy learning computer that makes him identify alphabets, objects etc. He has been figuring this out on his own mostly. It would tell him what is the button he pressed. For a couple of days he had been wondering and actually "scheming" as to its reaction if he were to press two buttons one after the other and laughing out loud the ensuing cacophony. Even If I wanted I couldn't have been able to teach him that. I am humbled at these little brains.
He reluctantly and impatiently sits next to me on some evenings while I work on my laptop and while he was watching something on the TV. His one eye is on my laptop waiting for me to allow him to press the keys. He said last night "Dinosaur". There is no Dinosaur on my laptop. I have Google search screen. Well for him that is where he finds dinosaur images. The quickness of association is lightening fast.
That brain at that age is humming.

Who will I tell When weather extraordinary wash over my way with gentle wind Who will I tell When ruffling leaves newly born But yeager to break free sway with abandon in a transparent gail that sustains life if not bring forth Who will I tell when water bearing clouds roll over the skies Who will I tell When sheets of water rushes down to earth to seek life Who will I tell When white flowers Open in the brightest of smiles In numbers multitude Who will I tell when brilliant rainbows skirt the Eastern skies and the platinum clearings in the western skies Who will I tell the dancing rituals of rain Timeless and age old

"Why should I yield?" An educated daughter asked her father In Grade 3 this daughter has arrived When in disapproval this question was raised The father told her a story To the best of schools she went Intelligent, smart, and confidant she became Matters abstruse, subjects difficult, back and forth she mastered But yield, she did not Swells of curly hair, with complexion much desirable, she was deemed pretty. An air of unquestioned sophistication she carried But yield she did not Any amount of education, All the sophistication in the world are of little worth when you know not how to yield To yield despite your right To be patient despite your turn Each by itself is worth a phd At least in my book And for certain, I believe, in the book of wise "Don't talk to me in words complicated" The daughter pointed out to the error in argument The father replied To yield is to give Especially when you don't have to To yield is to let go And again when you don't have to And when you are in 4th grade You will also know To yield is to concede In order to Gain "How should I yield" She asked, sure to extend the argument The father dug deep and said Like a father to his daughter And a mother to her son As the ground to your feet And as the sun to the clouds And like a Red wood to the scurrying ant With love with good faith Just like a big sister you are to your brother

Before today I would have never imagined that Speed Bumps could be topics of conversation.
"Is there a problem" my 3 year old wanted to know
"What problem! Oh, are you talking about the thud?"
"Yes!"
"Oh, that's a bump on the road"
"Why is it on the road?"
"It is called a speed bump. It is there so that you can not go too fast"
"Can I see it?"
"Yes, see that thing with yellow stripes"
"Yes, I see. How come they are not every where?"
"Well they put them once in a while"
"How do they stay there?"
"Well they take some dirt and make a hill and then cover it up with cement (I was praying he won't ask me what cement was!!)"
By now we were heading out of the school zone.
"why is the policeman there?"
"He is there to direct the traffic. He will tell cars to stop and go"
"Why is he not directing us?"
"Narayan, one more question and my head will explode with making up answers to your questions"
"Dad, you are a meanie and poopi head!!!"

Nights, Terrible nights, The realm of ghosts and ghouls And of prowlers outcast As many of the lores go In a place no where, far from the lights, On one such empty void night, Me and a night lamp, I recollect were sitting by a beam supporting the roof overhead among a hamlet by the woods No doubt the night was dark, Yet the air, cool and refreshing The security of the night was reassuring The wisdom of silence was palpable The world around seem to have fallen asleep Sorrows around seem to have been paused for the night Progress seem to have postponed for the morning Book in hand I feel guilty Amassing my riches while the world sleeps Like that old man greedy While the night lamp Burns its mid night oil In the night serene I seem to have found an unfair vantage
Unhappy, and unsettled, a bottle of ideas I shook, From the land familiar, a journey of leisure I undertook Lands far away I imagined Lands dangerous Lands law less Lands with out rules To a land separated I went Many Months I have spent Collecting documents To Prove I am who I say I am Flew on big birds waited in lounges clean and dirty but commonly indifferent to all things insignificant Spent my time jolly Slept late Missed my plane Hit with dementia Forgot who I am Lost my papers to a pick pocket Pontificating Men with goatees Women with scowly faces rejected my pleas denied my identity put me in prisons To the land familiar I could not get back In the land familar no one have heard of me or seen me again

Waste not, For I am in no mood to hear, Your million words of generalities, And speeches more A proposition instead, I make, should you lend me an ear.. Arms open, I must anticipate, Arms tight, I will embrace Should you offer a single word concrete.

Wonder if you have come across these lines before:
"I fix myself an Omelete, sir, Of fluffy clouds, and sky ... I sew myself a warm cloak, sir, of hope and daffodils."
Unlike this fanciful dilemma of "Poor Angus" of Shel Silverstein, in large IT corporations HTML prototypes can play a much more significant role. They can aid faster development times. They can secure budgets. They can encourage good architecture. They can directly lead to a number of development artifacts such as data models, and business services. I think prototypes offer another important aspect to the modern development process along with the Extreme Programming and RUP.
