growing up

hitting a milestone: got my (enhanced) driver's license today!!! feels awesome to have completed every necessary (or seemingly unnecessary!) step to finally get it.  just praying I don't get in an accident or anything now. I'm totally nervous, but very inspired by the quote:





  

 thanks for hanging in there you poor dear followers. hopefully can post some fun pics from over the summer soon. (can anyone else hardly wait for school to start?!?!) when did you get/do you have your license? tell me about it! (should I be afraid???)
love to you

  1. YAY!!!!!! Good for you, girl!! I got my license on my birthday--almost 2 months ago! I was scared to drive by myself at first, but after a few little expeditions, I was much more confident and not so scared anymore. I think what I was most scared about is that I really wasn't good at street names/knowing where I was going, so I always took Toby with me so he could operate the GPS on my phone. Now I am much better with street names and only use the phone in emergency situations. :) Just take a deep breath and relax--its just like the driving test--seems horrible, but once you're in it you're just fine. Congratulations!!!!

    Love,
    Hailey

    1. Thanks Hailey, you're the best! You always make me feel better when I'm nervous :) I'll try the bring-a-brother trick if Aiden's not too freaked out to let me drive him :) thanks again and really hoping to see you soon!!!!!

    2. You're gonna do great, and I've found the growing brothers are usually happy to come along--so long as you feed them when they get hungry. :) Hey, now we can meet up for lunch sometime, right??? We really should do that. I never get to see you anymore!!!! :(

      Have fun driving!
      Love, Hailey

  2. Congratulations, Madi! I haven't gotten my permit yet even, I'm waiting. I was hoping to get it this summer, but I don't know if that will happen or not. Amanda needs to get her license first, and I'll go in at the same time to get my permit. :D I'm so happy for you! Great job.

    Oh, by the way, I love the picture; you look so much like your mom! So pretty!

  3. Congratulations, Madison!!! So exciting. :D Having a driver's license is the best... having freedom and all that. ;) And it's soooo nice to just be able to drive yourself places. I've had mine since... May... and since then I've gotten much more comfortable driving by myself. So, don't worry at all. It's a wee bit scary at first, but the excitement mostly drowns it out. :D

    Can't wait to see some pics from your summer! Hope it was lovely. :) And yes! I'm -- surprisingly -- ready for school. It'll be nice to be productive again. ;)
