Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car?

 

In the fall I received an email announcing upcoming dates for drivers education.

I laughed.

However did my name get put on the list for drivers ed students?

Clearly they had made a mistake.

I hit delete and never thought about it again until Christmas.

One of my dear friends asked me if I signed Chase up for drivers ed yet?

Um….no.

We have boys that are ten days apart, surely she knew this.

They are only fourteen.

“But they will be fifteen in March”, she gently reminded me.

Gasp!!!

Denial…anyone?

His first class was this morning at 6 am.

I didn’t sleep all night.

I tossed.

I turned.

I watched the clock.

I checked on him fifteen times.

Clearly I am not ready for this.

And this my friends… is just the classroom part.

so funny....you make me smile. Just wait until he gets behind the wheel and takes off by himself for the first time. It is mind boggling to say the least. It almost killed me. However, all four of mine got through it and now my 16 year old grandson is driving me around. Life goes on whether we moms like it or not.
Smiles and hugs, Grammy L

I'm so glad I won't have to worry about this until the kids are 7! In Brazil, the driving age is 18, and my husband is adament that this apply to our kids as well. So when they're 17 we'll pony up for driving lessons (I already know that we'd both be terrible teachers). It's such a relief!
