Having a grown man child in the house is strange enough, but when he can drive…it's kind of like an out of body experience. Ever since he has had his permit, we have let him drive everywhere. As difficult as that was at first, we are reaping the rewards now. Jackson is very capable and eager to run to the store, take kids to school, and chauffeur himself to lacrosse practice. But every time he pulls out of the driveway I pause for just a bit and think, "is this really happening?"
That said, I'm also secretly loving it! I can see how moms get used to this. It is amazing how having just one extra driver during the day reduces my daily travel time. I'm convinced this a life changing event…for the better.
