I don’t remember kindergarten all that well. However I do remember the first day. I remember feeling excited and nervous, even enthusiastic to get on a big yellow bus and head off to school.

This was not at all like how the television shows I grew up watching portrayed school buses. Fifteen minutes later we pulled up to the yellow brick building

leave right after finishing breakfast. We walked down to the bus station and waited a few minutes for the bus. The bus that came looked old and small.
