Keira wants to ride the School Bus

Written By:  Andrew & Becx Eide

When Keira stated Kindergarten she has been asking if she can ride the School Bus to school. Our school is only one-half mile from our apartment and we prefer to drive her to school and pick her up.

When it is cold or raining and we drive out of our apartment complex We explain to Keira that those kids she sees walking to the back exit of our apartment complex are bus riders for Elementary, Middle, and High School. We tell Keira that if it is cold, raining, snowing, icy, those kids still have to stand outside and wait for the bus and they have to walk from the bus to their apartment when they get home.

We explain to Keira how nice it is to be warm and dry in our car and that we care so much about her we would rather pick her up. We explain how much freedom we have to pick her up and then go to the stores along the way home.

Although we don't mind if she were a bus rider we prefer to know she is safe in our car rather than wondering if she will arrive home safely on the bus or if she missed the bus and failed to find a way home.
