Sid has been going to the school day care for more than a month now. So, it's like 11 am to 2 pm is his classes; and then on, day care. It took him one week to get settled in this new setup. Finally, when he did settle, he is happy to go there and meet his friends --- on one condition --- "mumma, u will come to pick me up, right?" Awwwwww, heart-melting for me.
The initial guilt in me subsided and transformed to happiness to see him mingle with friends, learn more English words, learn discipline (he wears his own clothes now), and occupied in social learning.

Experienced the same feeling when my son was going to the daycare here in Hyderabad a year ago and it is really heart melting while leaving the kids at day care...nice post Soumya Menon
ReplyDeleteThanks Gurunath. True... the starting of school/day care is as brutal for a parent as the kid.
