School (Again)

We started school again on Wednesday. Well, except for my big sister, she doesn't have to go til Monday. lucky. But she does have to make up the days her school missed. Her high school was under construction and they couldn't start yet so they pushed them back til next week. I have the same teacher that I had last year. Her name is Mrs. Rose and she is great! We just had one problem. The school lost us on Wednesday. They put the wrong number on my transportation form and my teacher put me on the bus that the form said only it was the wrong bus! Luckily for me, my brother saw me get on the bus and followed me. He didn't look at the bus number so he didn't know we were on the wrong bus. We went to some neighborhoods that we didn't know and I got scared so I laid my head on my brother. He told the bus driver that he thought we were on the wrong bus. Then we had to go to the middle school after the driver made the elementary school stops and they put us on another bus to get back to the elementary school. We were on buses for an hour and a half and no one knew where we were because the bus driver didn't radio in to say he had us. When we finally got back to our elementary school, my sister and neighbor were there and the principal almost cried. She was very happy we were back. My sister was a wreck. She had been waiting for us to get off the bus at 2:45 and we weren't there! Poor Casi freaked out. Mom almost threw up but dad knew we would be OK. On Thursday, the principal told everyone on announcements how proud she was that we were so brave and that we did what we were supposed to do, which was tell the bus driver and then sit tight. The whole school gave us a round of applause. That was pretty cool. Now everything is OK because we are back on the right bus!
