Drivers license for real?

After waiting for 2 hours at the DMV Cael turned in his paperwork and is now a provisional driver for the next six months.  He can drive solo or with his siblings... this is going to be so great to have another driver to take the kiddos to practice and games— hooray!!

* Except on the first night that Cael took all the boys to soccer practice he forgot his wallet back here at the house with his ID to get back on post, so we still had to go drop that off at the gate! He is still learning and still finding a way to “ruin” my peaceful evenings... jk.

Part of the story begins when Cael took his drivers test and failed the first time after he almost hit a pedestrian in the DMV parking lot. It was at the end of the test and the parking lot really can get congested and people pop out of their cars... so bad luck for Cael. I had really gotten after him in the morning for dressing nicely and combing his hair for his test... which he ignored... so it seemed to me he deserved the little slice of humble pie when he did fail  😂

But seriously how did my baby boy get so big and like a man?!? He’s smart, funny, and tries to do the right thing. Cael really is a fun sport and playful— we have a great time together with him.
