On the Bus....

This morning was a first for us.  Oscar is now taking the bus to school.

On the surface it may seem like a rather ordinary event, but we are anything but an ordinary family.

It offers us a level of convenience that is much appreciated.

But it comes with that old familiar fear of the unknown.

There are so many things to worry about.

At the same time it has been something he has been asking for, he continues to seek his independence...

We'll see how it goes.  But as he got on the bus this morning and I heard other children calling his name out, I was both excited for him, and nervous.
