Riding the Bus to school - The UTA Bus

Etta has been wanting to ride the bus for a long time. I think it started this summer when we met up with our Angelica and Layla. They had road the bus to the park and Etta has been asking and asking to ride the bus. She also sees the school bus out our window every morning and I have told her that bus takes kids to school. She then started asking if she could take the bus to school.
Last Monday I mapped out the UTA bus route and we headed off to Preschool at 9:13am. With only one transfer we made it to preschool just 4 minutes late. She was just beaming and couldn't wait to tell her friends.
Gibby and I headed off to the post office and park during preschool. After preschool we jumped back on the bus to head home. Etta sang "the wheels on the bus" the first part of our trip home. She loved pulling the little cored telling the bus driver to stop.
She still asks if we can ride the bus again. We will have to see.

Hooray for Etta getting to ride the bus! Even though it's not yellow I'm sure it was exciting! What a cute and funny little gal!

You are the sweetest mom. I would have never thought of such a thing! You are great. Also, thanks for the Disneyland tips. We had a great time and your tips were very helpful. I have yet to post the pictures on my blog though. There are SO many!

That's hilarious that she still remembered the day we took the bus to the park. She was so sad that she couldn't ride it home with us! I'm glad she finally got to experience it. Miss you guys!!!
