Home with a Smile

2:30: School gets out.
2:45: I just got home from getting Jonathan from school.
4:00: The earliest that he has gotten off the bus this year.

I have one happy 7 year old, instead of one extremely grumpy 7 year old.

It wasn't much trouble getting Elisabeth, David and Thomas in the car. It fits nicely right before Elisabeth's afternoon nap. This really may be worth it!

4pm seems like a long time to ride the bus! You are such a good mommy!

Now that I think about it, he did get home one day at 3:30. But, he came home with a confusing story about how 2 buses picked up the kids for the same route by accident. It sure didn't leave me with a good feeling.

How long is his ride, or should I say commute, in the morning? Is it also an hour or longer? Does Lebanon have rush hour traffic??

I take the boys to school and pickup for the same reason you are. We leave in the mornings 10 min after the bus picks up and we are home 35 min in the afternoon before the bus drops off. Worth it to me and my boys, too!!
