Ten Minutes

I pick up nine Head Start kids daily and provide door-to-door service from the facility to their front door. The HS lady brings them to my bus in single file like a gaggle of little geese and makes sure they’re strapped in while I sign the clipboard for each one.

Today I decided to turn my smartphone’s sound recorder on as I pulled away from Head Start. Normally I say goodby to the kids but I just remained silent with the radios off. The recording was actually 30 minutes but I stopped it at 10. As each kid gets dropped off the chatter diminishes until finally it’s just Hector, and my mind can rest…
