I'm writing this to Cool My Heels while waiting on a Tow Truck; though I think that later I'll be Laughing Over it.

Fresh Up from (Legally) Mexico, My Prima (Female Cousin) had just got her Learner's Permit so I took her out to learn how to drive on some Empty Streets before heading to the store.

Three Near Accidents and winding up in a ditch, My Prima is a Nervous Wreck and wondering just how Mad I am; We Haven't Even Got Out of the Driveway Yet

The Car is fine, other than Pride, No One is Hurt, the Car is Just Stuck; after it's Free, I'm Putting her back into the Driver's Seat for a second try.

I Survived Teaching (Horror) My Twins how to Drive so I'll Teach my Prima how to Drive; Even if it Kills Me.

I taught my son and daughter. They were apt students because they wanted to use the car!

Well I survived my Prima's First Driving Lesson, so did the car; surprisingly, not a single incident after pulling the car out of the ditch, even with light traffic.

Somehow it seems like after your first big embarrassment behind the wheel, things just smooth out after; which is why I put her back to driving.

Still has lots to learn; but at least she knows that she can drive to the store and back.

I lived through it eventhough I begged other people to do it, in the end she ended up being my best driver out of my 3 kids.
I am so glad she was the youngest!

I have one more child to teach, there's a place not too far that is under development where the paved roads are already in place but no houses yet; great for teaching how to handle a car, take a few tall cones and you can teach parallel parking as well.
