Jay and the Bus

jaybus.jpgAug 6 is the first day we put Jay onto a school bus. Jay has grown up and its time for him to take a school bus - to be independent. After almost 14 months of ferrying him to and from the school, Jay somewhat got used to the car ride... Everyday he look forward to either mommy or daddy come and pick him up...

So, in order to make the transitions very smooth, whenever I am free to pick him up, I will stay a little while longer and wait for the time where some of his classmates has to wait for the bus. I then asked, where are your friends going, Jay, simply answered "They sit bus". "Do you like to sit on the bus?" "You can see a lot a lot of 货柜车 (transportation trucks), Shell truck, and so on... This is to build the excitement of taking bus, this is to solidify the concept of "kids must take bus to school"...

So, when it comes the time - Aug 6, we let him take the bus on his own for the first time... and he loves it... and very excited when the bus comes. To make sure he really likes the bus ride, I went to the school that day, and observed, and guess what, Jay refused to take my car home, and instead, he wanted to sit on the bus... He wants to be with Gabi, TV, Lily and YouYou to sit on the best...

This is where we felt happy... as Jay really grew up and can choose what he wanted to do... after a few days later, he is still fond of taking the bus. Guess what the bus uncle said... Jay really likes to take his bus, and he had never see such a happy face taking the bus... hahaha

Now, Jay's mom can stay at home and rest and awaits for Baby "K" arrivals...
