on the bus

Ben is so excited. He picked the seat in the very back which means we are next to the bathroom. Each kid that comes can't figure out how to work the knob or asks me if anyone is in there, so I have become the bathroom monitor. Yay. We are watching Earth DVD and a cheetah just killed an antelope and devoured it. James Earl Jones is narrating about the circle of life and the speakers are quite loud. Ben and his buddies are playing with a robot which is pretty cool. I packed a sprite as a sirprise for Ben and BoY was he surprised. All the little hyperactive boys are playing with the arm rests and there is some kicking, hitting and pushing. And of course the bathroom door just wacked me. I am not being sarcastic but I LOVE second graders. They are so innocent and sweet. How exciting it must be for them to take a coach bus with their classmates to a far away place to see cool sharks and stuff! No wonder they have ants in their pants.
