I almost forgot to blog this!
In July, Nick got his permit. Right away, we got him out driving in the Tahoe. He was doing pretty good his first Sunday driving to and from church. Well, as he was pulling into the driveway, he got too close to the Geo and the mirror scratched the front panel of the Tahoe. Lucky for him, the mirror had already come off once and glued back on, so it gave very nicely and we didn't have any more damage.
Nick was kind of scared when it happened, waiting for my reaction. And you know what? I laughed! I thought it was hilarious! I turned to him and smiled, and calmly said "Next time you hit something and hear a scraping sound... stop as soon as you hear it." That was it, no yelling or screaming. To this day, he refuses to drive the Tahoe, he said it is way too big for him. I guess if I were 17, I'd rather drive a sporty little car than a Tahoe too.
