These rites of passage are killing me!!!!! We are in week 2 of Driver's Ed. She's doing awesome. Really, she's a super driver. Can't believe she's only been driving a week...just one week. Tomorrow, i'm informed by the paper driving schedule supplied by her instructor, she will be driving on the interstate. The freakin' interstate, people!!!!!! Ugh! I was really calm, really together about all of this and then the unspeakable happened. Last night, 2 teenage girls were killed in 2 separate car accidents here in our hometown. Both accidents were due to wreckless driving. K knew one of the girls. It's every parent's nightmare. Just so tragic. My thoughts and prayers for peace go out to the families involved and all who loved them. My heart, however, continues to beat out of my chest everytime my little girl gets behind the wheel.
I heard about those 2 accidents on the news. I thought they were talking about the same one over and over. Yuck. She will be great. She has amazing parents. Makes me nervous to have all these kids out of school driving around...does that make me old? :)
