children's language is never easy to translate :)

the question was:

- which arm do you like more, left or right?

and he literally said:

- i love my parents most.

but in russian he used the same word "больше" (=more), but with a tiny adding he completely transformed the framework of the question - which is very zen-like. it also reminds me alice-in-wonderland kind of jokes.

so i "comment" (in admiration, obviously), "oh, my god, what a zen-wizard!" (i use already familiar "pancake" instead of "god" :)

"on your head" - we often say it about troubles which fall on our head.

so, in the end it is a kind of (jokingly) complain about a "wizard" which has grown up in our house :)

ps: you asked earlier, it is our boy on the userpic :)
