Backseat Driver

Apparently, once you turn five years old, you automatically receive your Backseat Driver's License. I say this because Kelsey turned five yesterday and today Daddy relayed the following story to me.

Jim was taking Kelsey to see Pappaw, and they were waiting to make a left hand turn. When the left turn arrow turned yellow, Kelsey yelled, "Hurry, go, go GO!" They made it through the light, but then they got stuck in construction traffic (go figure, construction is one of our two seasons here, the other being winter...) It didn't take long for Kelsey to grow impatient as they waited in traffic. In expression of her disapproval she exclaimed, "For real people, come ON!"

I think I'm going to have to plead the fifth if anyone ever asks me where she may have learned this impatient traffic behavior. Or maybe I'll tell them she got it from Daddy. At any rate, I'm innocent!

Kids are just too cute!! I don't think its age 5 here... Jaycob's already telling me, "Green Mama, Go! Cars go!" and "Mama stop! Trucks stop, Mama stop!"

Oh yeah love the backseat drivers.

To top it off even though Aby don't get whats going on joins in on the fun of yelling at me to stop or go!!!
