Every morning, when the kids pile into bus number 7 in Arlington, Washington, they have quite a different experience from most kids riding the bus in America. Driver Carol Mitzelfeldt greets every single kid by name — an act of kindness that doesn’t go unnoticed.

“It gives me a warm feeling,” one of the students says. The kids on bus 7 have a great little community — with one unlikely member. Every afternoon, an elderly woman waves to the kids as they drive past her home — and they warmly return the greeting. They’ve come to call her “the grandma in the window,” and she’s become an important part of all of their days.
