Well my son took his driver's renewal test again yesterday. Passed with flying colors.
Since his previous attempt two weeks ago, he's been relegated to the manual every evening after finishing his school homework. Guess you could say after he finishes his homework, he's got to do his homework. I think we were both ready for him to try again and get it out of the way.
I had to take off work a little early in order for him to try again. The smile immediately stretched wide across his face and his eye glimmered when he was told his score. That said more than words, and I knew he'd accomplished his mission.
He laughed afterward and said that after reading the manual for two weeks straight, he'd better pass since he had most of it memorized. Earlier in the day he'd received a 100% on his first geometry unit test, an A on his art assignment, and now he finally had a picture ID with his cool beard.
It had been a good day.
I'm so glad too because we can finally finish up his night driving hours and get him his genuine license in a few months and he can start driving himself hither and yon instead of me rushing to take him and pick him up.
Plus, having a bona-fide teen driver in the house makes for a great errand-runner.
