Dominic's first day on the bus

Today was Dominics first day to ride the bus. We woke him up at 6:30 and the first thing he asked was "Do I get to ride the bus?" We got him and Addison ready for school and he was so excited the whole time. They looked so cute when they left with their back-packs and big smiles. Addison took is hand and played the part of the big sister and introduced him to the bus driver and all the kids already on the bus. Shanna gave him time to get there and called the school to make sure he got off at the right school. About 10:30 nervous Nana called Shanna and asked her to go up to the school and from a distance watch to make sure he got on the bus. He would be riding a different bus home so I was worried. Shanna got up to the school and called me. She said, I feel like a stalker, but she watched. Sure enough he got on the right bus so we hung up and I told her I would call as soon as he got home. I knew it would take at least 30 minutes for him to get here but after pacing around for 10 minutes I decieded to head down the road(we have to pick the kids up at the end of our road) I sure didn't want to be late so I grabbed my book and my coke and went to wait. I was so nervous I couldn't even read. In about 20 more minutes, to my relief here came the bus. He loved it. He was so proud of himself. That is a big accomplishment for a 4 year old and an old Nana!!!!
