Bus Partnership

I was getting ready to put Ian on the bus this morning, and he disappeared to another part of the house and scampered back with a wooden, hand-painted car that we had made from a kit many months ago, and he tucked it into the outer-pocket of his knapsack. He then explained that Aiden had been complaining that they had nothing to do on the bus, so Ian was bringing a toy for them to play with.

I asked him, "Who's Aiden?"

Ian gave a very thorough answer:

"He's my bus partner... Joey's my across-the-seat bus partner. So is Michael, Joe's bus partner."
