Hands Free (A Mama Kat Writing Workshop Prompt)

Mama's
This week, Kat’s writing prompt number one (which random.org “assigned” me) instructed us to write about “A moment you realized your child was growing up.” In deference to the slew of “to do’s” that await me in the wake of two weeks of vacation, I am going the six word memoir route for this post. My daughter (the one who just got her learner’s permit on June 27) will drive me there…….. 

the end………

    Oh wow what a huge milestone that is. I can clearly remember when I got my permit to drive. My dad pretty much freaked out!

    Funny thing is I freaked out when my baby boy started walking, I can't even think about how I'll feel when he starts driving. Ah!

    Great job doing 2 prompts in one. Well done, lady! (stopping by from Mama Kat's)
