Licensed driver

Madison is now a licensed driver. She passed her written test.

I kind of have mixed emotions about this. She is a safe driver and pretty responsible but it is still hard to let her go. First of all she is directionally challenged. All my friends said that driving helps with that but I am still worried that she is going to get lost. I don't know how parents did it before cell phones. At least I know she always has that on her so she can call me. Also, I know this is the first step in her independence and it just doesn't seem that she is old enough. Where has the time gone?

I did get a taste of how nice it is going to be though tonight. She had to be at the high school for a game and I didn't have to run her to drop her off. I know tomorrow when I get to sleep in when she goes to her team breakfast that I will be liking it too.

Tonight was the pink out game. Madison had a lot of fun getting all dressed up to cheer on the Varsity. I think she is starting to feel more normal again since her surgery. It is fun to see her have fun with her friends.
