Of course, my body would not be up to it any more and only in memory is the situation amusing.
Often both the toddler and the baby fell asleep during the ride, so I had a sleeping child under each arm, folded stroller in one hand, bag in other hand ... that meant I had to shout into bus often enough: "Please throw the shoe the baby dropped and the doll out to the stop!"
I am amazed I killed none of the kids, dropping them under the bus wheels. But being able to manage on my own made me proud of myself and the children picked up the right attitude (even if I DID find out later that the older ones had taken rides alone when 8 and 3 years old. So the attitude of being able to manage alone was not dangerless when I was myself busy dealing with the baby).
