today was the first time i ventured onto the bus with my three daughters. we were in need of groceries. i strategized for a while... and made my plan. it went relatively well. the hitch came near the end when my big girl needed to go pee while we were waiting for the bus to bring us home. i was worried to leave the bus stop, but a man also waiting for the bus promised that he would hold the bus for us. in the end it was no big deal, as the bus was 25 minutes late! then when we got on the bus the driver asked me to break down my stroller. i had no idea this was a protocal. i was overwhelmed. the stroller was holding my 9 week old baby and packed with groceries. he let it slide this time, thankfully. next time will be tricky. i dont know how to pull it off. honestly, i cant even break down the stroller while holding my baby, and keeping my toddlers in check.... and where do i put it? or the groceries? i would wait till my husband gets home, but the busses stop running at 5!

so i guess i shop on saturdays or else!

any public transport tips mamas?
