The Wheels on the Bus

Three days in and Grom was ready to ride the school bus.
Truthfully, Grom said he was ready on Monday.
It took me a couple of days.

We waited at the bus stop with the other kids. His nose itches, promise.

"Bye, Mommy"

After he got on the bus, I hightailed it to school.
I knew he'd make it, but wasn't sure what he'd do when he got off the bus.


He kept walking and pretended he didn't see me.
I stalked him all the way to his classroom.
Of course, he did great.

I think this going to school thing might be harder on me than on him.

I didn't follow the bus today.
