Once again, a very happy New Year.
Are you getting back to doing normal things yet?
Of course you are, just like me.
For instance. . . . . . .being chauffeured about town!
She's getting ready to take her driving test this month. My sweet baby high school
senior granddaughter. I pushed her in a stroller, shared a teacup ride at the fair,
was her seat mate on many airplanes around the world, and almost died of fright
riding Space Mountain with her at Disney World. . . . .while she laughed with excitement!
Now, over the school vacation, I sit in the passenger seat of my own somewhat
precious vehicle while this child young woman drives me around town - with a
learner permit tucked in her purse.
We go shopping at the mall, have lunch out, sit in a coffee shop with our laptops
sipping lattes, sharing things and moments while we can.

Jasmin's one of the girls now. Adjusting the seat - she's shorter than me, and
touching up her lipstick, before we go looking for new boots and pretty little things!
Have you ever taught a teenager to drive?
