Milestones

It seems that when the kids are really little they

reach milestones all the time. First smile, first word, first steps - you get the idea.

Then as they get older the milestones are fewer and farther between.

Well yesterday a BIG Milestone was reached at our house.

Joe drove away - Alone!

Oh and remember driving a minivan is Cool.

He got his license the day before and took off for cross country practice today.

Do you see the smile on that boys face?!

He couldn't wait - although he did have to listen to a

"mandatory mom lecture" before he could go.

I told him they would kick me out of the club if I didn't give him the talk.

I am proud - and I am gonna secretly (okay maybe not so secretly) worry.

Also last night Brooke had a Milestone of her own - she (okay the whole WHS Marching Band)

was on TV. They were the band of the week.

They looked great and sounded wonderful.

She is there in the middle (her hair is pinned up) with the big smile.


Here you can see her blowing her cool Mellophone!

I'm quite the proud Mom.
