I still remember when my younger son was born, my elder son was two and it was too much too handle both of them. So we thought it would be a good time to send the big guy to a day care for just a few hours. It was his first day to go to a daycare. Both of us woke up early and i got him all ready for the school. I were feeling both excited and nervous. We both reached the school and i took him inside... he seemed to be very anxious of his new surrounding. He went to his class, the teacher told me i could go and wait outside now. i watched him thru the observation window. He was not crying, nor laughing... he was just standing there all by himself with a very blank expression.....
My little boy... that sweet little thing..standing there
where am i mama....? why am i here today?
who are these new people around me?
can i trust them?
did i do something wrong? why did amma send me here?
i am not sure if my son were thinking that, but these was going thru my mind...
tears rolling down my cheeks, i walked out to the parking area... by then i could not control myself....., i burst out and crying like a small girl who is lost in a carnival. With a very heavy heart and tears in my eyes i started the car.... it seems the longest journey ever ..., to my husband's office..., he rushed down and got in the car.... we talked and then we both drove to my little sons school. I went straight in to see my son sitting at a corner, i told him.... Amma is here to take you back home..., i gave him a very very big hug and we both hold hands and walked out happily with a big smile on our face like two kids out of the candy store. My husband did the rest at school.... MOM IS NOT READY FOR SCHOOL.

Manjari, thats such a sweet post! I can still remember exactly the same when I went to drop my daughter..then my twins..I still feel we should pamper them most at home before they could go face the world...but unfortunately we can't always have everything...but kids are wonderful..they learn to adjust fast..only we adults are always scared!..forgetting that we were kids too and had the same feeling..
