Fender Bender Follow Up

So, this is the story I got from Jazz. Somebody, in a car, pulled out in front of the bus. The bus hit said car. Everybody rocked. One girl fell out of her seat (she was in front, closest to the drive), two others hit their heads on the seats in front of them. Jazz bumped her head on the backswing and her knees hit the seat in front of her. I'm sure that everybody got bumped a bit. Nobody had to go to the hospital, but there were "police cars, and ambulances, and fire trucks there, Mom!". So it was kind of a big deal.

The bus driver looked a little hesitant/shy/scared/reserved when Jazz got on this morning. I felt bad for her.

The call you don't want...

Babysitter: hey, is Jazz coming here today?
Me: yes. Why, is she not there?
Babysitter: Nope.
Me: What time does she usually get there?
Babysitter: 15 minutes ago.

So, as my heart is pounding out of my chest, I call the school bus garage.

Me: yeah, I'm just have a question about my daughter's bus.
Lady: What school?
Me. (*********)
Lady: Bus ABC?
Me: yup.
Lady: I was just getting ready to call people. There was a little fender bender and we are dispatching another bus to pick up the kids and finish the route.

Yup, that's right. the bus got into an accident. Nobody was hurt (thank goodness) but the almost funny thing is when Lyric was in kindergarten this happened like 3 times within a month. It was crazy. I think that bus driver finally got let go. let's hope that this is not a sign of things to come.

Anyway, Jazz made it to the sitter about a half hour late and was laughing so I guess she's not bothered by the whole thing.
