A Call from Ma'am

Adi's play school, Roots2Wings had closed for Christmas vacations and finally reopened today. I didnt send him to school because of the severe Cold Wave in Delhi. Every one tells me that kids enjoy playing in this weather.

However, waking up Adi when it is so freezing cold and then getting him ready is like a one and a half hour roller coaster ride for me, particularly as water is freezing cold and we have to boil lots of it before it can be warm enough to give him a proper bath and all that. Geysers don't work on generator back ups and till about 10 am, we don't have electricity. The back up is a life saver but all these thoughts made me decide that its so much easier for Adi and I if he stays at home during the Cold Wave phase.

Then, I got a call from Roots2Wings, Vaishali. It was his Ma'am. She called to ask if all's fine with Jyotiraditya and said that please send him because "we are missing him. He has such a beautiful smile and nice manners that it is a joy to have him around."

I don't know why but I felt so happy that his teacher called to say this. It warmed my heart to hear these golden words about my little brat. Of course, he wants to be an actor so he acts well, I guess, that his teachers are convinced that he is well behaved:)

This is one thing I've made a point of doing as a teacher, calling to share the good news about someone's child. Teachers are so quick to call about bad news.

I'm glad you got some warm comments :)

This post reminded me of how I was this shy, quiet, well-behaved kid in school and nothing short of a chatter-box at home ...
