Today was Trevor's first day at his new school. We got up extra early to get ready because school starts extra early(7:35). I had to take him in before school so he could be assigned to a teacher. He was so excited & just a little bit nervous. I think I was more nervous than he was. I was the most nervous about him riding the bus. When I was growing up I always lived close enough to the schools to walk & our last house was down the street from the school, so Trevor has never had to ride the bus (except for field trips). I didn't know what to expect. So when I met his teacher I made sure she knew it was his first time riding the bus and I told her to let the bus driver know that he was the 3rd stop. I also told Trevor to look for the houses with the flags & the fences in the front (the model homes). I guess he forgot & the teacher never told the bus driver so Trevor got off at the 1st stop. So when the bus pulled up & Trevor didn't off I freaked out. The bus driver went back to all the stops. I was so scared. He doesn't know the neighborhood at all. I didn't know if he would stay put or if he would wander around looking for me. Luckily he stayed put & the bus driver found him at the first stop. He said that he was scared, but he didn't cry. I felt so bad. I'm so glad he is back safe. Now I'm nervous about sending him on the bus tomorrow morning. Hopefully the take him to the right school.

That has got to be the scariest feeling ever! I can't even imagine. I'm so glad he's home safe and I hope tomorrow goes well for him.

Sad! Poor Trev. I actually think I heard Bryon talking to you on the phone today while I was at work. Something about something being lost & going to look for "it" guess that "it" was Trev. Glad you found him safe & sound. I'm sure he'll get used to bus riding soon.
So scary! what a big guy he was. I still remember when Robyn's boys transferred sschool and the bus driver let Brax (2nd grand) and Cam(K) at the wrong stop. Brax took him by the hand and they walked 2 miles to the babysitters! Boy were we in a panic!
Tell Trevor he is very brave!!! So are you ;)! I wish we lived just a little farther from the school so Mckenna could ride the bus! We are just far enough that she can't walk by herself and trying to get through the line of cars is crazy.
Scary. I would have definetly cried if I was trevor (and you). But that's probably not suprising.
Oh my gosh! I would freak. I think I would just take my kids. I am a nervous reck about that stuff.
Wow, I would have freaked out. I'm glad it turned out alright and he didn't end up wandering through a strange neighborhood!
That is every mother's worst nightmare. I'm so glad they found him!
I would have been in a panic too. I am glad everything worked out. I can't imagine.
Sooo messed up. I would have thrown the biggest fit!! And bawled my eyes out too. Glad he's okay, that's so scary.
