Look Mom! I’m Driving!

Two years ago the big announcement about Sabreena was she was getting braces. Yesterday Sabreena drove for the first time. This really snuck up on me. I know she’s 16 now but driving didn’t really enter my mind until signing the Driver’s Ed forms last week. Then I get a phone call Tuesday morning from her Driver’s Ed teacher telling me he’s adding her to the schedule the next day. I was a bit surprised. I fumbled some words and then just said UH OK. My first instinct was this tweet

reaction to teen driver

UGH the teen is driving


Sabreena was a little surprised too. She had only had 1 class and didn’t feel prepared to actually get behind the wheel. Since she is already 16 she was 1st in line to drive.

After her first lesson I asked her how it went, she said “Ok, I didn’t hit anything which is a plus”. That’s my positive thinker!

So we’ve entered into new frontiers and I’m not sure it I’m ok with it.
