Life's little milestones...

This past weekend we passed another of those little milestones you don't really think about as you are getting older. My youngest daughter and I started her driving practice so she can get her license. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was doing the same thing with her mother...my how time flies when you are having a life. At 16 she has been pushing for her license for a couple of years now. And with our auto insurance bill, I've been pushing back. Looks like I am about to loose the pushing match...

Around my family, for some reason, driving licenses are not a big push for the kids. Except with this one. Youngest son waited until he was 18...Now we never see him.

All in all the experience on Saturday went better than I hoped, and Sunday went even better. Tonight she will be driving with a professional instructor and I do not envy him his job at all. I guess what amazed me the most was I managed not to raise my voice more than once. That time all I said, rather forcefully, was "TAKE YOUR FOOT OF OF THE GAS". Not bad...we lived.

Oh well, time to move on...Have a photo...

My youngest got his license recently, too. I empathize...

Thanks Patry, at this point in life a little empathy can go a long ways...I try to cultivate the zone your Thanksgiving flat tire buddy had, sometimes it works even.
