Over the last week, we have seen the big yellow school bus return to the streets as children everywhere head back to school. As a child, the school bus meant only one thing, it was my way to and from school, but as an adult, this big yellow bus takes on a whole new meaning.
This week I almost feel elated as I see little kids walking to school and school buses everywhere, the world is back to the hustle and bustle after a few months of summer break. The streets are busier, and everyone is getting back into their routines.
I adore this time of year because the start of school means that fall is on the way and that is my absolute favorite season of all! It is such a beautiful time of year with the changing leaves, crisp air, and holiday fun around the corner.
I can’t help but smile when I see the buses roaming the streets picking up children and dropping them back off. The mere sight of one takes me back to my childhood and brings back so many school memories.
I think as human beings, we are thrilled with change and new beginnings bring on great excitement. In a way, the start of the school year and the fall season is like a new beginning. I thrive on seeing “normalcy” return after the quiet and emptiness of summer break.
I love summer, I enjoy vacations and spending time outdoors with loved ones. There is a lot of fun that happens during the summer months, but after it comes to a close, I am thrilled for my favorite season to arrive. Fall is so magical to me and is such a cozy time of year. What season is your favorite and why!? What visuals remind you of your favorite time of year?
Fall is definitely great, the leaves change, the weather changes. I like winter too. Not a big fan of summer especially when it’s super hot.

My favorite is the weather when its chilly, not winters, yet chilly. This usually happens before the rains.
PS- I hate rains though ’cause it gets so messy and dirty everywhere.

You are welcome.
Simply put, not wanting to go to school : ) which paradoxically, led to resulting experiences unique to my life, a good number of which make me smile when I think on of them.
I may like how they make you think better : ), and am not surprised you inquired into how I see them.

Not at all. I knew you’d inquire because that’s the impression I get – that you care and are curious. So actually, I was pleased you asked.
