It's there for a reason...

I've got a new section added to my route this year. Part of this new area includes a turn around at a state park. There is one speed bump, only on one side of the road, right by the office at the stop sign. My pregnant belly plus my air-ride bus plus this speed bump equals a huge discomfort for me! My solution? Simple, as long as no one is coming, I slip into the other lane and slide right around that annoying bump :)

One of my brilliant kindergarten kids always says "hit the bump, hit the bump" I say "no Cory, we don't like that bump". Cory and I have this conversation every day. Sometimes one of the other kids will say hit the bump before Cory says it to which I'll hear Cory reply "we don't like this bump, do we Miss Tee"... that kid always makes me smile! So the other day, I stop at the stop sign and whip around the speed bump, as usual, and Cory says "hit the bump Miss Tee, it's there for a reason". I have no idea where that came from so I say "well do you know the reason that it's there?" He says "yup, so you don't drive so fast".

BEEP... BEEP...

I have been told I have a bit of a lead foot, but I don't speed... too often! :/
