Milestone

 A milestone of  modern adolescence occurred in our household today. Josh went to the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Office in Tupelo and took the written test to get his driving- learner's permit.  We stopped at the Bank to get the forms notarized and then headed to the Driver License Station at the Furniture Market.  There were several other teenagers taking their written test, one young man before Josh didn't pass and was a little disappointed.  Another young man before Josh, also named Josh,  had passed and one could tell he was more excited about passing than the expression on his mom's face which showed she was worried about now having a young man ready to be behind the wheel of a vehicle.  Josh took the test, passed, paid his $4.00 and got his picture taken and now had his permit ready to begin practice driving.  David gets to be the instructor, I'll being praying for them!

  1. Way to go, Josh! I don't know if I am excited or a little scared to be sharing the road with these teenagers. But good job, all the same.

  2. I am generally scared of sharing the road with new drivers in general, but let Josh know that he is at the top of my list of who I would perceive to be "most responsible" of teenage drivers. If what I believe is correct, he has been raised by two very responsible parents!
