Unsung Heroes
The other day I was at my mailbox when I heard the familiar low rumble of a school bus. I stood watching it drive past. A young female driver sat behind the wheel, map in hand, learning her route before school begins. I waved and she waved back, giving a bright smile.
Maybe because I can’t imagine doing a job with screaming third graders behind me or middle school students mooning each other, or God knows what in the back seats of the high school buses. I can’t imagine the responsibility. We were at the top when the brakes stopped working. Even the cool kids in the last row grew silent as the bus started sliding backwards with the driver frantically pumping brakes, which didn’t work.
Before that day, I hadn’t taken much notice of who drove us around. But that morning I really looked at her. She was a heavy-set woman, middle-aged, with frosted blond hair. She could’ve been anyone’s mother or even grandmother.
