How to build a supercar.

Little boys and girls do the strangest things, for the strangest reasons. That is what makes them so fun to observe.

Today, Syahidah caught sight of Tiarnan, five, at work on his cousin Arissa’s scooter. He was placing stickers on it and had fairly covered it, in the brightly coloured decals.

“What are you doing?”, she asked of her son.

“I am tuning it.”, he said, without looking away from his task.

How funny. In his mind, he was “tuning” the scooter, just as cars are “tuned” to make them faster with a higher performance.

With a smile she left him to it.

Later on in the day, he made a gloomy observation to his mother.

“The tuning didn’t work. The stickers are SO heavy!”

Well, at least I know where to go if I ever need my car tuned. I can just ask my littlest son.
