I thought it would be a little bus....but it was BIG. Too big for my almost 3 yr old. There were safety "harnesses" inside, just not what I was expecting. Today was Nate's first day at his new school. He liked the bus. And that was all he liked. We'll get there, just more adjustments.
I set myself up to have a crappy day although I really didn't mean to. I had scheduled myself to volunteer in Jack's classroom today long before I knew that Nate would be switching schools today too. And I didn't want to back out at the last minute. So after I put my precious cargo on the bus and had a good cry, I went in to Jack's school and played "What's Gnu" with the kids. It was kind of fun. I finished up around 11:30, got home around 11:40 and got a call from Nate's teacher at about 11:45. She said that somehow the transportation people had only gotten a request for Nate to be taken to school, not home. I guess they thought he would hitch it? So he was sitting there all by himself with the teacher. I went to go get him and the teacher let me know that he cried most of the morning and only calmed down during snack- that's my boy- we love our food. I know it will get better- this was just not how I wanted his first day to go. Did I mention that the sitter wasn't able to come today? So Nate and I made calls together all afternoon. Some days I wonder what the heck I think I'm doing. Today was one of those days- just felt incompetent all around. The best part was when I was driving to get Nate and the all Christmas radio station started playing "Run Run Rudolph." Perfectly fit the theme of the day!
