I'm finding out that a lot more people than I realized are following the whole 'Justin not going on the bus' drama. What makes a 5 year old who LOVED going on the bus for the first month of school, suddenly run from the bus and cry? I'm not really sure, but I have a feeling it's not just the bus but just going to school in general. He mentioned that he gets a lot of work during the day and they don't have playtime or snacktime (like he did in preschool). With kindergarten only half a day, I am almost positive the teacher is trying to pack a lot work into the 2.5 hours she has them everyday. I have my parent/teacher conference with his teacher tomorrow night, so we'll see what she has to say.
As far as today and bus.... Justin did get on the bus again, but I had to carry him on. The good thing is, he didn't run from the bus when it pulled up. Oh, and yesterday he told me he cried all the way to school (our neighbor's daughter told me the same thing since she has been a big help with sitting with him on the bus), but today he said he only cried for alittle bit. So, we are slowly making progress.
I also started a chart for him to put a sticker on each day he goes on the bus. I told him that if he goes on the bus the rest of the week, he can pick where we go for lunch on Friday. He already told me he wants to go to Wendy's and we have to eat inside (since I always bring it home).
Now, if I can only get Madison to stop peeing in her pull up at night then all would be good in the Seich house. Oh well, one thing at a time.
