So Friday morning, DefConn got on the bus and I said to DH, "A sub...again? He has an awful lot of substitute bus drivers." DH agreed. I knocked off early and went to the store and wasn't home when DefConn got off the bus.
I get home and the kiddo's all, "Um guess what happened this afternoon?!"
The bus was super late and DefConn got off the bus *sobbing*. His friend had convinced DefConn to get off at his stop and then his friend gets off the bus and was all, "Deuces!" and heads home. DefConn, scared out of his damn mind, starts walking up and down the sidewalk, crying and not knowing what to do. The bus driver, realizing the mistake, turns back around and gets DefConn.
DefConn is beside himself and tells DH (between sobs), "I (sob) think (sob) it's (sob) time to get me an iPhone!!!!!!"
I keep vacillating between this being hilarious and not wanting to put him back on the bus tomorrow.
Also, I'm not sure if I should say something to the school or not...because fault here is kind of 50/50. We have reiterated, and will do so again, that he only gets off at our house. I also hope he was scared straight by that short time he was left behind.
