Today is the start of drivers education for my son Matthew. As a parent, this is a day that gets you both excited and fearful. At 16, he will probably be one of the oldest in the class. He just wasn't that interested in learning to drive until he turned 16. I think we are glad about that. The more mature a kids is, the more likely they will make wise decsions in driving. I am looking forward to the day I don't have to drive him everywhere he has to be. Dad's taxi service will still have 2 more kids to take where they need to be but to have one more family member able to drive will help a lot.
I am not looking forward to higher insurance rates. I remember my parents and their talks about how expensive their insurance was when they had two teen boys on their policy. I still have to go talk to our insurance agent and get a quote. I probably will make sure I take someone with me to catch me as I faint.
So if you see our car driving very slow and erratic, please be patient and know that if you have younger kids it will be your turn soon enough. Please pray for us.
