Driver's Ed is Over

Yay! Erik is finished with Driver's Ed! No more late nights. No more frantic rushes to finish homeschooling by six. No more exhaustion. Can't say that about mental exhaustion, though. He's getting better every day, but he still needs practice, of course. I guess I'll continue to deepen the well in the passenger side floorboard from my slamming on the imaginary brake for his near misses. I guess I'll continue to lean my body over to the left in my futile attempts to keep him from veering off to the shoulder. I guess I'll continue my white knuckled grip of the above-door handles as if that would save me when the car disintegrate into pieces the size of chewing gum, but hey. You parents with kids younger than 15...just you wait.
