Day 2 Bus Woes

8/26/2011

My son loved his first day of kindergarden, and couldn't wait to go back to day 2.  Morning came and we headed out to the bus stop about 6 minutes early from the time listed online and the time it came on the first day.  We sat out there for 15 minutes and realized it had already come.  I called the district bus people and they said it was there about 7 minutes early and that we should wait out there at least 10 minutes early from now on.  I frantically ran back to the house and loaded my son up with my husband to go to school.  I was so mad - late already on the second day!

I finally talked to the bus people on day 3
, and it turned out that the online times were wrong.  I explained my disappointment, not to mention that my son was scared and didn't understand why I didn't come to get him at the bus.  The bus guy was nice and handled it well, but I felt like it was pretty bad that they couldn't get the proper times updated on their website. I guess this begins my career as a mother advocating for her children at school.  I can only imagine what lies ahead!

Day 3 and 4 went well and it seems the times are better.  My son is happy, and his only problem now is that he thinks the
