Since ASid turned 16 in August, some people have casually remarked that
he will get a driver's licence and a job before I do! I tend to have a positive
perspective on most things and I take those comments to mean that ASid is on
his way!
Craigley's biggest nightmare
is that he will be driving the 3 of us for the rest of his life. So, he has
been looking forward to ASid turning 16 and getting his driver's licence.
Obviously, Craigley has given up hope on me ever getting there. I do not blame
the poor man. I am rather slow in getting to some goals. And it appears like
ASid is not in any rush to get his DL as well.
ASid is a seasoned TTC
veteran at the very young age of 16. He loves that he can read a book or watch
a video while someone safely takes him from point A to point B. In fact, I
believe he recently wrote an entire essay about the TTC and it almost read like
a love story. So proud of that boy!
And this is what Craigley has
to say these days, "That boy is your son!" Yes, he is! Craigley is almost ready to give up hope on the boy as
well. There are 11 days left in this year. Would the boy deliver a sweet
present to his hapless dad or would he continue to torture him into the New
Year?! Only time will tell.
It is interesting that ASid
is waiting this long. At the age of 2, he could identify most every make and
model of cars on the highways and in the parking lots. One of his first
alphabet books was a custom book put together by my brother where each letter of
the alphabet corresponded to a car company. So, ASid was obsessed with cars at
one point in his life. And there are people wanting to buy him his first car
and yet, the boy is taking his time...
...the apple sure doesn't
fall too far from the tree.
But for once, I want the apple to roll far far away from the tree! But
then again, it is really up to the apple!
