The Scariest Milestone


I taught all my kids to drive , yes I did and dad didn't teach a one of you and not sure why? I took each one to get their beginner permit and then BOOM we were off! After that well, anytime we went anywhere , I became the passenger.
Now I would feel the anticipation and sheer fear that WHAT IF! You feel like you are driving but your not! Someone else is in control! Our foot goes down when its time to brake, we cover our eyes and look up , we keep tight hold on the door handle and think we are in the drivers seat but we'ar not. Now I think of the sign in my living room that says" YOU CAN"T SCARE ME I HAVE CHILDREN." ha. Well in this case you can! Like it or not they say our children learn by watching us. I think do I drive like that! ha! Children learn from how we act and not usually by what we say. this can be both a good thing or bad especially now. So when and if I ever get a chance to drive again , I try to drive carefully hoping they pick up on it. Now the years have dwindled away and one day they will be teaching their own children to drive and I hope they will take caution and set a good example. I did my best guys!
And after the test they will look at you and say HOW DID I DO? and of course you are proud and say , YOU DID GREAT! of course knowing some improvements are coming. ha.
