My sixteen year old daughter

My daughter asked me the other day if since they don't have school on Wednesday if I could take her to take the test to get her permit. I told her I would have to find her birth certificate, but yeah I can do that. See she took the driver's education class during the summer a month ago I had to take my oldest son into DMV and I was going to kill two birds with one stone( not really I wouldn't kill a bird) and have my daughter take the test than, well I forgot you had to bring in the birth certificate and social security number. I work tonight so that is nice the kids don't go to school tomorrow and I can get a little sleep than try to find the birth certificate so that she can take the test and get her drivers permit! Not that I am ready to teach her to drive, but I know how she feels because when I was her age I couldn't wait to learn to drive so I could get my drivers license. My oldest son went to take his test to get his permit when he was 16, but didn't pass the first time. I kept asking him if he wanted to try again until I gave up asking. He finally told me one day when he was 19 that he was ready to take the test he did he past and it began the nightmare of trying to teach him to drive! I was so nervous! I took him to an empty parking lot before I took him on the road which was a good thing! I finally had to let my husband take over because I was making my son to nervous. So we will see how my daughter does and I am sure my husband well end up taking over again!! Another thing is I can't afford more gray hair!
