A Proud Mum

UPSR results was released yesterday.What a relief to parents who had children sitting for
the exam last September.Yesterday, schools welcomed parents who were anxious and
excited over their children's exam results.I was in school yesterday waiting patiently for
the school to release the results.So were other parents.We waited at the canteen.No one was
allowed to be in class while the teachers distribute the exam results.I think this is a good
system to avoid overcrowding.Soon we heard shouting and screaming from the classrooms.
A lot of suspense for the parents.Then one by one I could see them coming down the stairs
with results in hand looking for their parents.Happy and excited.But where is my son? I
could not see him anywhere.I did not feel good at all.Other parents were busy hugging
and congratulating their sons/daughters.But there I was standing alone,didn't know
what to expect.Then I heard someone said,"Auntie,Iman got 5A's".I guessed it was my
son's classmate.I was so relief.I thanked and congratulated her.I went to the classroom.
Classrooms were already empty.I went back to the canteen still looking for my son.There
he was with a friend and proudly telling me his results.I hugged him with tears in my eyes.
I thank God for his achievement But it is still a long way for him.This is just the beginning.
