A mother has praised her six-year-old son's school bus driver for making a difference in his life. Kelly Isenberg from South Carolina recognizes that having one good friend while navigating this world can really impact your life. That's why she's profoundly appreciative to her son Kameron's school bus driver, Charles Frierson, for taking care of him when she's not there. The mom revealed to <a href="https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/living/story/6-year-shares-special-friendship-school-bus-driver-99958982?fbclid=IwAR0613yrXNxmX0NT6-00ZCxxFxld_N4V_s1RQXnCXptejCE5hW4kIztFc1U">Good Morning America</a> that she decided to express her gratitude to Frierson through a heartwarming letter sent to the Berkeley County School District. "I just wanted him to know how much we truly, truly appreciate him for everything that he's done for Kameron, so I figured the best way that I could do that is just to write him a letter," Isenberg told the publication. [[youtubewidget||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APLgwOlPC_w]] Isenberg shared her touching note with the outlet and in it, she wrote: "I have always believed angels come when you least expect them. This holds especially true in regard to Mr. Charles, the bus driver of school bus #220 of Berkeley County, SC." The proud mom went on to describe Kameron's tough transition to kindergarten and how his unexpected camaraderie with Frierson - who met him on his first day at Cane Bay Elementary School - helped her kid to adjust to changes. "Mr. Charles goes above and beyond every day for my son," Isenberg continued. "From simple things such as them eating lunch or bringing my son his favorite ice cream for the two of them to eat together, extra treats being slipped into his backpack as he gets off the bus, to bigger things such as taking time out of his weekend to come to my son's baseball games." Kameron's special education teacher, Stephanie Williams, also opened up about the pair's friendship, telling the publication that the two seemed to have an instant connection. "Kameron knocked on the [school bus] door and Mr. Charles came up to the front and opened the door, and [he was] excited to see him. I said, 'I know we're early [but can Kameron] get on the bus for a little bit and chat with you?' And that's all it took," Williams recalled. "The way he glows when he sees Mr. Charles, it's something that's indescribable," the teacher sweetly added. "Mr. Charles truly is an angel walking here on earth because Kameron was struggling and he has done a complete 180 - and Mr. Charles has even encouraged him to do things that [he did] not always want to do."

"Sometimes you don't know what kids may be going through, and that 'Good morning. Have a good day. How you doing?'... that relationship and small communication with them makes a difference. So, that's what I enjoy doing," he said. The loving bus driver stated that young Kameron "means the world" to him, and added: "He's an amazing, bright little six-year-old that I call 'my little buddy' and will always be my little buddy... to know him and to be around [him] is to love him. You've gotta love him." Even though Kameron's school is on summer break, Isenberg hopes that the two can still hang out, saying:  "We definitely plan on seeing Mr. Charles a lot this summer. I can't keep them boys apart from each other long." Frierson chimed in: "I'm looking forward [to] our little ice cream and McDonald's date, the waterpark, and hopefully… we can get out." <h6>Featured image credit: FatCamera / Getty</h6>
