Dere's Da Bus!

Assert is out this week because the university's on spring break, so Carter gets to ride the bus TO AND FROM Riverside this week! He's a little bit excited. He starts waiting at the window at 10:30 (the bus doesn't come till 11:30), and with every car that passes he says, "Ope! Dere's da bus!" Cutie says it over and over again. Then, when the real bus finally arrives, he holds his breath and looks at me in excitement. My eyes get big as I look down at him and he waits for those magic words. "Guess what, Carter? THE BUS IS HERE!" And he giggles and jumps up and down as I try to put his back pack on. Then it's a race to the curb, and a smiling bus driver opens the door, always happy to see our adorable Carter, so excited for school!
