I finally got my act together and asked Tyler the other night what he wanted to do about getting his license. He was really excited last year when he first got his permit but after running into the mailbox the second day never wanted to drive much. I never pushed it thinking it would be better if he waits and personally didn't want to teach him. I am not a very good driving teacher. Ask Kirsten. I taught her how to drive a stick. We were out driving and she kept stalling it at a 4-way stop sign by Orem Elementary. Of course cars honked and went around us. I finally changed places with her and stalled it myself until I realized it was in third. Okay, the car was a piece of junk which didn't help. Anyway, Tyler said he wanted to do it so we committed to him driving every morning to school and going driving every evening when I have time.
I have him say a silent pray each morning before he drives. This morning we had our family prayer and then left early so he could get to school and practice ballroom. We got in the car and he immediately said his prayer. I wasn't going to do it since we had just had family prayer but it certainly helps and things thus far are going really well. He should be ready to test in a couple of months.
