Diary of a Crossing Guard, Day 12

This morning brought 3 hugs, 1500 pedometer steps, 1 pair of shoes to be tied, the breaking out my first aid kit for the 1st time to treat a big owie, having a very nice woman pray over me, 1 car ignoring the school bus' red lights and stop sign, and 2 people blatantly running red lights, but only 2 families ignoring me and cutting through the teacher's lot instead of using the side walk and no one dumping their kid off into traffic. We'll call that progress!

Also, it's supposed to be 97 today with fairly high humidity. I know I'm the one who loves heat, but if we could drop that temp by about 15 degrees, I'd love it!
