Another step in life - Play school

My daughter started her play-school...her first step to an independent life. As soon as we reached the school, she opened the gate and went inside, she din't look back. I went behind her with her school bag. We climbed the steps to her play school section. She was decent enough to remove her shoes outside the room and keep it along with the other kids shoes :) As we opened the door to the play school, she found two kids sitting in the opening for keeping bags; she too joined them and settled herself along with them. She didn't turn back to see if I am there...I was happy that she din't cry and be messy. I left her there and came down to complete the admission formalities and left from there leaving her to the care of her new teachers with a prayer to God to take care of her. I came home and described her entry to the playschool to my mother; she was telling that myself and my brother were also like that, both of us never used to turn back even to bid goodbye once we reached school. I thought I'll pen down my thoughts about her day in playschool and started writing this, and there came a call from "Popcorn", saying Malu was crying out there. I ran down to call my brother and go with him soon to see if she was fine there. We reached there in 10 mins, thank God we chose a playschool not much far from home. At the gate itself her loud cries were heard. As I entered I could see her with some friends and the teacher looking from the window upstairs. I waved at her and there her cries became even more louder :( I ran upstairs and there she was crying loudly "Ammaaaaaa...." and was urging the people inside to open the door. She came running to me with a huge sigh of relief. My poor little baby was so relieved to see me there. The teachers said it would take a few days for her to get adjusted to the new environment. Hope she gets used to the ways of life, this teaching, school, teachers everything...
