bus worries

riding along on my emotional roller coaster. 2 nights ago i was inconsolable, yesterday i was mad for most of the day and today i want to forget any of this is happening. this is so fun!!
my sweet #2 boys josiah feel asleep on the bus on the way home from school monday and he missed the stop, elisha came running into the house with the announcement "mom we have a major issue" he was smiling the whole time while telling me that josiah didn't get off the bus so i thought he was kidding. after i found out that he wasn't i went and called the school and they called the bus driver who had noticed he had a straggler in the back and had already turned around to bring him home. i was driving down to the bus stop and met him and our very sweet neighbor on the way to our house, he was walking josiah home so he didn't have to come alone. i got him in the car with me and he was very shaky voiced and scared. he said he was mostly just mad at himself because he shouldn't have fallen asleep. I kept telling him that it wasn't his fault, it is just one of those things that happen, it's not anyone's fault. elisha felt really responsible for it because he got off the bus without making sure josiah was there. i explained to him that it wasn't his responsibility to take care of him brother all the time, but i know that now that this has happened it will never happen again, so we learn from it and move on. they were both scared they would be in trouble and josiah was really shook up, so i let him pick where we had supper that night anywhere he wants to go he picked burger king, just because they had good toys in their kids meals. i never let them have kids meals cause they are so much more expensive but i did the other night so he would be happy. the night ended well and everyone was safe and sound at home.
