Baby steps toward self independence (1)

The first look of the first time she was assigned to a shop on her own...

Rules: 1. I could see her movement to the shop from my window

2. She was to dial our home number in case of emergency (ies)

3. She was not to talk to strangers.

4. She was to look to the left and right and left and right again before crossing the street.

Running all the way as she crossed the street...

still running towards the shop..

Returning home from the shop

Yup... she went to the kuruyemis and bought 200 grams of hazelnut!

Bravo!

Like any mother...i was really worried and scared..thinking of terrible *what ifs*..

But if we mothers do not teach our kids the ropes in life... who will eh?
