I love two things about http://waveatthebus.blogspot.com
First, I love the sense of fun and creativity that Dale Price has shown waking up every morning to wave at his son’s schoolbus as it goes past their house.
Secondly, I like that his son is 15/16, not 5 or 6. I love any parent who loves his/her teen age kid enough to be willing to embarass them by goofy fun. It’s teaching him something. You can be cool, or you can be a little wacky. Coolness is just aloofness. A little wackiness adds a lot to a day to whomever is touched by it.
Rain Price will never forget this year and neither will any of the other kids on his bus. In years to come they’ll be smiling and discussing their favorite costume. The joy will travel forward in time.
While the website is worth a visit if you want to get a really good look, you can see the whole year’s worth of wackiness here. Which is your favorite?
