Oh, how I love this part.
There was a lot of build up to this part today. We waited a long time…like 40 minutes long. I wasn’t exactly sure what time the bus would arrive and I didn’t want to miss it, so I got to the bus stop early. Add to that the typical delay of the first day, and we had a long, hot wait.
When I heard the rumble of the bus, I started to feel giddy with excitement.
I searched the windows, hoping to see where they’ve chosen to sit this year. I was able to find them today, and they were waving excitedly. The windows are heavily tinted, but I could sense their smiles beaming at me.
The kids started to file off. Our bus driver said good-bye to each by name (oh, how I love our bus driver! I am convinced that we have the best bus driver and mailman in the world.)
Finally, they spilled out of the bus, bursting with joy.
There is no doubt about it. This was the best part of my day today.
aww… perfect! Great pics!
That is always my favorite part too!! 🙂
