I’m really fond of the kids I transport but occasionally one warms my heart. There’s a little six year old that rides from the Community school and she’s got to be an old soul. Smart, soft spoken and genuinely kind when the others around her are not.
She asked me about the box of Easter treats when she got on the bus yesterday, and I just smiled. She knew the drill. As we approached Driggs I got on the intercom and told the kids to grab their Easter bag on the way out the door.
Sitting directly behind me she said to the girl next to her “You know what? I love my bus driver.”
Heart, melted…
Kids are great aren’t they. They come up some of the cutest things to do and say. You are a great bus driver and they all know it.
At least she knows it…
