While Axel was initially enthusiastic about going to an elementary school 4K classroom, he quickly became nervous. By the time he got on the school bus, his happiness was gone and he started crying. Amy had to pick up the little boy and put him on the bus so she could put him in a seat.
That’s when the bus driver, Isabel Lynn, showed up to be champion. Isabelle pointed to the seat directly behind her and offered to sit down. While his mother tried to calm him down by telling him how much fun he would have at school, he didn’t believe it and continued to obsess about it. To help him, Isabelle offered her hand and the little boy grabbed it, glad there was someone he could hold on to, according to NBC.
Before they left, Amy Johnson snapped a photo of her baby boy holding hands with the tender-hearted bus driver. After realizing it was too good not to share, Amy took the photo to Facebook and shared it with the Augusta Police Department.
“I could see he needed a rest and it was the best I could do at the time,” Isabelle told NBC.
Overwhelmed by the friendliness of the bus driver, people were quick to comment on how adorable she was and how much they appreciated her efforts to comfort the little one. Now that the tensions of day one have subsided, Axl loves going to school and is looking forward not only to her, but to getting on the bus himself.
