Yesterday I rented a car and drove it by myself. It was the first time in 16 years that I had driven a car by myself.
My cute rental car–a Toyota Yaris.
I drove 60 miles to my son’s house to be Noah’s grownup while his parents were away.
Here’s Noah’s little red car.
Today, after arriving home from Pete’s house, I drove to Michael’s house. After all, I can’t return the car until tomorrow and there was still gas in the tank that I had paid for. So, off I went again.
I loved it. Got to talk with Josh who returned from pole vaulting practice while I was there. Also, I loved the time I spent with Noah, from noon until 9:00 p.m. Saturday. I told his parents not to hurry home. I wanted to get him to bed before they returned. Success. He said he’d had a good day. Me, too.
Ditto today!

Proud of you!!!! And happy for you:-)
Hallelujah! Driving is so much fun (well, it is the way I drive — just around out still relatively small town). Two sons in one weekend. What a change your life has undergone!
Congratulations!
Yay Indepenance!
Hooray! I knew you could do it!!!! <3
woooo!!! would have loved seeing you in that red cutie.
Good for you! What a nice day for a drive…I hope it leads to more explorations–you live in a beautiful place.
Is your car red like the rental or is it just a Yaris like the rental? It looks like a neat car for you. This is great!
