Driving

Sometimes my Husband gets some of the most interesting ideas. For example, I needed the car this afternoon, so I opted to take him back to work after his lunch hour. We left a few minutes early, so he decided to pull into an empty parking lot. At which time, he asked my daughter if she would like to drive the car. Please remember she is four years old!

The lot was large and empty except for a few cars around the edge, so I didn't see the harm. My daughter looked quite confused about this new activity. Her interest piqued, she climbed into the driver seat with her Daddy. She had a great time turning the wheel and making the car go where she wanted. The car was full of laughter as she asked all sorts of questions. She pretended to be a race car driver making all of the "vroom" noises that she thought were necessary. Her little sister in the back seat was quite concerned about why her sister was driving. She keep peeping up with questions like "Where sis? Why sis drive?"

The most memorable moment in the car was when she hadn't gotten the hang of the steering wheel yet and thus we just turned in circles. After this experience, our new driving expert asked if she could drive Daddy to work. I am glad that my hubby chose to do the right thing and say no. A little bit of family fun in an empty parking lot sparks the question, what kind of monster has he created?
