Missed The Bus....

So, on the second day of school, I decided to let Faith ride the bus. This is something I have thought about since I was a teacher....I protested any of my children riding the bus. However, Faith's school starts at 7:25am, which means I have to leave my house at 6:45am to take her school...which means waking up Brooke, and throwing her entire day off. So, I decided that, for right now, the bus was the best way to go. Faith was so excited to ride the bus and hopped on it like a pro this morning! Here is a picture of her loading up!

All was fine until after school....I saw the neighbor's kids getting off the bus...but NO FAITH!!! I asked where she was and they told me she wasn't on there! ..insert panic mode here....... I immediately called the school, who called the teacher, who called me....turns out the teacher put her on the wrong bus, but thankfully it was the bus who's route is through the back of our neighborhood. After waiting 45 long minutes, the bus delivered my baby to my door. Needless to say Faith was absolutely terrified and crying. I put her to bed last night and she said, "Mommy I don't ever want to ride that bus again!" ....just great....not a good way to get the school year started!! So, we shall she what happens on Monday morning when it's time to catch the bus!!!

OMG!! I am so sorry that happened to her!! I swore to never do that too and here I am letting them all do it!! I am contemplating on letting the Kindergartener ride in the mornings. It has been so nice though not to have to get dressed to take them!! :) Bless her heart! I hope she feels better about it monday! :)

I still can't believe this. Poor Faith AND Mommy. Hopefully yesterday and today were better!
