Taylor's driving.....not sure if this is cool

Another milestone at our house was reached last week. My oldest finally got her driving permit. I say finally because she is 16 and 2 months. She could of gotten the permit at 15. She really had no interest in driving and probably would still not have gotten the permit if it had not been required for Drivers Ed. She signed up for the class at High School, so it forced the issue.

One of the first drives reminded me that she is my kid. The first time I drove was with the instructor on main street in Trumbull CT. Within a few minutes the instructor calmly let me know that driving on the sidewalk was not a good idea. (probably was not the last time that happened) Anyway.....Taylor needed to turn around in a strip mall. The turn was a little wide an up on the sidewalk we went. I was proud of myself.......I calmly told her the same thing the instructor told me 31 years ago!

She is not the biggest fan of driving yet. But she is doing just fine!
