after school

We wait for Noah's school bus to bring him home in the afternoon. We feed the fish if we have time.
Maybe eat a popsicle. When the bus pulls up, the doors open, the auntie helps them down the steps and then they take off. The kids run past, throw their bags down, and start playing 'boom rush' or freeze tag. If I'm lucky I'll get a hello and a kiss on the way.
