“Mom”– the principal kindly gave me some candy,, and– this letter for you,,,
Mother opened the letter and cried.
Seeing tears in his mother’s eyes, the boy said, “Mother.”
Why are you crying?
Mother wiped her eyes and said, “Dad.”
Cry of Joy:
It’s a cry of joy,
So he kissed the boy and said; my
Genius Dad,; I read the letter to you.
Mother take it as positive:
Mother shouted with joy and changed the language of Sir’s writing and started reading in her own way,,,, “Ma’am”.
Your son is a mortal genius.
Like teaching him in our small town
We don’t have teachers;
So–if you can take your son to a big city
It is better to get admission in a school.
This boy will one day gain a lot of fame in the world.
After reading the paper, the mother kissed the boy and said, I will teach this genius boy myself.
