Cruising In The Driveway

This is my youngest daughter "Cindyjo"
a.k.a "CD/Conceited Daughter".

This is also the daughter who grew a pair of balls and decided she wanted to "drive my car".

So after a nice afternoon of water fights and washing my car with the girls, Cindyjo jumped in my car, started it and turned the radio all the way up.

My oldest daughter "Jo" who by the way, already has a learner's permit (Yay Jo!) turn and looked at me like "no way, she won't drive away" ... Well she did.

She only made it to the end of our driveway and panicked.

Cindyjo sat in the car yelling for me and laughing, wanting me to drive the car back up the driveway for her. So of course any other mother would have jump right in and came to her rescue right? ...well not this mother!

Jo and I just stood there laughing at her, and saying that's what you get... now figure it out! I told her she needed to park my car the way I had it and she better not hit the other car parked in the driveway.

she was scared.

it was funny.

Finally she pulled up the car and parked it (the picture is of her figuring out what gear to put it in) she stayed in the car for about 20 minutes with the radio blaring, thinking she was hot shit for pulling it off...

when she came out of the car I told Jo the soak her with the water hose for trying to jack my car!

Jo did.

I remember being SO scared to drive when I was 15/16. I remember the day before my birthday, my mom was taking a nap in the afternoon. She was sick at the time. I decided it'd be nice of me to drive her car to the car wash and get it washed. I drove there, feeling fine, having fun. I panicked on the way home, and had to have my mom walk with me back to the car to drive it home. :) So, I feel your daughter's pain. Now it's 11 years later, and I drive like a pro! Or at least I think I do!!!!!

OOOOH My baby has a drivers permit and this is the first I have heard of it? Everytime I call you I ask if there is anything new! So cute! I remember when Ana taught me to drive at the "city mall" which is now the block and I kept laughing with my head down the whole time and Ana kept telling me to look up and watch the road but I was so nervous all I could do was laugh! Now I drive like a pro because I am a pro driver but I'll be honest I can not park to save my life!
