Mostly musings: everyday life, funny stuff, kids, friends, and more.

I am SO proud of Jack.  He wants desperately to take driver’s ed. He’s going to be 15 next month so this would be 12 months before he could drive. Although I think that taking the class this long before actually driving doesn’t make much sense, I remember the excitement of wanting to learn to drive so if he got into the class in October, I was going to let him take it. He was so excited that he had all the pickups arranged – even for when I am going to be out of town.

But, he’s been practicing with drill team and really likes it. He takes it very seriously and even practices at home.  Yesterday, they told him that he would be first alternate on the team and he’s only a freshman. He was so excited that he dropped the idea of driver’s ed like a hot potato and rescheduled his transportation so he could fulfill his responsibility of drill team first alternate. Howard and I talked this morning and it just makes us so proud when they make good choices that represent the best priorities.
