She is a CHILD you don't take her WORD!!!

Ok so I went to pick Ryne up from the bus stop, to my surprise she wasn't there!! I thought maybe she beat me to the front office (they get candy from the managers), I went there but no Marryne!!! I kept telling myself not to panic, I asked a few of her friends if she was on the bus to which they said no, WHAT!? I double checked with a couple of the older kids just to make sure they too said she wasn't on the bus. I started to panic just a little, I tried calling the school no one answered so I called the classroom again no answer, by now I was saying "What the HELL!!!? (I don't normally swear so no offense to anyone, but that's really how I felt). I called Dana and had him keep calling the school while I loaded the other kids in the car (thank goodness Ellie was up from her nap), Dane calls just when the school comes into view and tells me Ryne is in the front office. Apparently Ryne had a substitute and she believed Ryne when she said that she was a parent pick up instead of riding the bus and instead of double checking to make sure that was right she just believed her SERIOUSLY!!!! YOU DON"T TAKE THE WORD OF A 5 YEAR OLD!!! It ticked me off a little more when the office had the nerve to tell me that I shouldn't have my 5 year old relay the message that I was going to pick her up NO DUH!! I told them that I thought the only way to pick them up if they normally ride the bus is to send a note or call, which they said was correct, then I asked them if I did either of those things? Of course they said no, then I said why would you believe my 5 YEAR OLD, and why wouldn't you CALL to make sure that was right!!! They apologized and said it wouldn't happen again, I was glad that she was at the school and not some where else but still I was so scared when she didn't get off the bus, and really they should have called me!!
