Teenage Driver

It seems like just yesterday when Sam was learning to walk, and now he's learning to drive. Where has the time gone?

Today, we went for a driving lesson. I always think I have weak nerves, but they must be nerves of steel since I am surviving teaching Sam to drive. Today's lesson was a huge success, too. He finally mastered taking off without jerking or stalling. Of course, if we had an automatic for him to learn on, it would be easier for him; but it is so good for him to be able to drive a 5-speed.

We haven't had a chance yet to get his learner's permit, so we practice in an empty parking lot. In a couple weeks, he should have his permit and be able to take it on the road. He can't wait! I'm still a little leery about that.
