My students called me "Mama!" lol

Gather all my students for painting demostration, after I'd showed them the new techniques on watercolour work, the 5 & 6 years old were so amazed that one of them exclaimed and called me "Mama!" I was alarmed, then the rest followed Katie and called me "Mama!!!" Susanna laughed and said, "Teacher Esther, you've so many children!" Shana continued and hugged me in front of the students and expressed, " I love you Mama!" Then I asked her, "Do you hug and say that to your own Mama?" She was thinking... the other children were watching her... I continued, "So today you go home after lesson, do that to your Mama ok! She exclaimed, "YES!" Then they were instructed to go back to their seats and do their painting. What a funny surprised by the little ones! :)
