Day 11: I LOVE the School Bus!!
Jayden goes to public school for children with disabilities (PPCD). He attends from 11:45-2:45 every day. He qualified at the age of 3 under speech impairment. He has now been in the program a full year and will go into the same class in the Fall under Public Pre-K as a child who was once in the foster care system.
We love his teachers so much and are thankful he will have spent so much time with them before moving on to kindergarten.
Every day last semester, we would watch a school bus pull up in front of our house at 11:40 to pick up his classmate from across the street. We do not receive bus service in our neighborhood because we live right next to the school, so I didn't think about why this child received it, I just knew we didn't. It was frustrating because I would often have to wake Jasmine up from her morning nap or delay her going down for an afternoon nap because of Jayden's drop off time. I finally wised up and asked how we could get on the bus and they said your child just has to be in the "special needs" program at school and have an ARD/IEP. Well we do with Jayden!! So after much hassle contacting the bus barn, I was able to get him on everyday.
It has been awesome for us!

He loves watching for it out our window and then climbing aboard.
The driver and attendant are super nice and he seems to really enjoy it.
They buckle him into a car seat because of his weight, so I know he is arriving safely with 5 other classmates.

The bus goes to the end of our street and takes a left at the stop sign.
Then another left and a right into the school parking lot where his teachers open the door to the classroom to receive them.
It is that fast and easy.
The girls and I walk to pick the boys up on good weather days.
It has been such a huge blessing for us and we plan on putting him on the bus again in the fall.

Such a big boy riding the bus. I always wondered about how little ones road the bus safely.
I know Jasmine's naps are benefiting from this blessing.
