Bus Time

It finally happened. Jaxon is ready to ride the bus. When we moved to Ogden Jaxon had the option of riding the bus. The school is about 4 miles from the house. It has taken him a little over a month, but Monday he informed us that he was ready to ride the bus....I am sure you can imagine my HORROR! THE BUS??? I did relent and let him ride. I knew it would be good for him. All the kids in the neighborhood ride the bus. In the afternoon when he goes to school it is just the Kindergarten kids. So I figure thats okay. Jaxon at the bus stop. At our "stop" its Jaxon and two girls. OF COURSE he can not stand by the girls. Germs you know! Those girl germs are real killers! Ryker at the bus stop. He was beating up Will. Hence the closed fist flying through the air. Yes, he is a trouble maker, I have realized it and am dealing with it.
Toothless Joe. Jax lost his two front teeth. He is now talking with a stunning lisp! Its rathter entertaining. I really like trying to watch him bite into things. Sad really when thats the highlight of your day!!

Hoping on the bus! Of course having to beat the girls on!Off he goes. This of course is where I totally lost it! Broke down into raking sobs! Willie practically had to carry me home. He was laughing the whole way. I just didnt know if he would be safe, or if he liked it. What if someone beat him up or he had to be the kid that sat all by himself!? I was such a mess. I insisted that Willie drive me to Jaxons school to make sure that he got off okay and was not crying or bloody. Willie says I act just like my mother. ( which to me is a high compliment) When I picked up Jaxon from school that afternoon. (No he is not ready to ride home with the big kids yet and yes I am more then happy about that!!) Anyways when he got into the car, I asked him how the bus was he told me the play by play and how much he loved it. Then I asked him if he saw us when he got off... He said, with his face bright red " Yes, I saw you. I got off the bus just fine. I told you to not do that. So please dont do that again Mom. ITS NOT COOL!" So there you have it. I am not cool and I am no longer stalking the Kindergarten Bus!!
