Call from my Middle School Child:

Kaiden: Mom, Ummm, I missed the bus.
Me: Huh? The bus LEAVING school?
Kaiden: Yes.
Me: Kaiden... what kid in this world misses the damn bus LEAVING school?
Kaiden: Sorry... I was talking and just missed it.
Me: Shocker... you were talking.

I swear to god that child cannot shut her mouth and pay attention to what is going on in her surroundings to save her damn life!
