Taking the Wheel

I know I haven't blogged in ages. I keep telling myself I have to keep it going as this blog serves as a sort of personal history record for the girls and future generations. I'll get round to filling in the huge gaps but in the meantime here's the latest news - I'm finally taking driving lessons!

I'm the only adult I know who doesn't have a driver's license. The girls are so used to this that they can't imagine me driving. But dragging 3 kids and their stuff around especially in the hot sun got me thinking that perhaps I should get a car. We are tired too of our bad luck with taxis - whenever we need one, there's none in sight, but when we don't need one, they are everywhere!

So three days ago, I sat for the Basic Theory Test, passed it (49 out of 50 questions right) and had my first driving lesson. After the lesson, the girls first question to me was, "Did you crash into another car?" Hmmm such faith they have in their mother...

Yup I don't have a driver's license and that's why I prefer the girls to train at the Katong school which is within walking distance of my home. My hubby drops them off at Bugis on Sunday mornings and I go down in the afternoon to pick them up.
