A Bus Driver's Heartfelt Letter About Two Remarkable Siblings

Every parent knows that feeling when their child comes home with a folded note in hand. The first thought is often bad news from the teacher, or at best, another event requiring money or advance preparations.

When siblings Annalise and Jorge returned home one day with a letter in their backpacks, their parents didn't know what to expect. With trembling hands, they opened the letter, only to discover it was from Cindy Clausen, the school bus driver who took their children to school every morning.

Cindy noticed the siblings' exemplary behavior compared to the other students and couldn't remain indifferent. "I am thrilled to share with you what I have witnessed, and I still can't get over it," Cindy writes in her heartfelt letter. "There's a child on my bus named Jackson, who is disabled and uses crutches. Your children show him so much love and compassion. They ask me every day if they can sit with Jackson, and when I watch them in the mirror, I see how happy he is to be with them.

"Until now, this child was completely isolated and often struggled with school. But since your kids came into the picture, Jackson arrives at school happy every day. He has trouble walking and takes a long time to reach his seat, but today your daughter touched my heart: while we were helping him off the bus, she encouraged him, saying, 'Come on, Jackson, you can do it,' and I saw from afar how he tried to walk faster. Your children play a massive role in driving this child towards happiness and self-fulfillment, and it's so wonderful to see."
