Grab a cup of coffee, tea or whatever beverage you drink early in the morning because I have a funny story to tell! Sit back and relax this is too funny! So I was all wrapped up into my bestie who was visiting here about two weeks ago.
I had Mazda drop me off a vehicle, so I parked my car on the other side of the parking lot and put the Mazda in my normal spot. Didn’t pay my car too much attention that whole week because I was more concerned with the new ride! Chile, so here is how it went down!
Dootie: Mom, I got something to tell you.
Me: (Looks up from computer) What is it Dootie?
Dootie: Umm, did you notice anything different about your car?
Me: No, what do you mean? (I look out the window at my car).
Dootie: (She grins) Well, I took the car to the corner gas station and got some snacks for me and Pootie while you were gone with Auntie Heather. I thought you should know. I was very careful and I even took the trash out!
Me: (look of disappointment but wanted to laugh) and I say…Why would you do such a thing? Anything could have happened to you! This and that could have happened, you are going to give me a heart attack, lawd!
So that is pretty much what happened. When I was young, my friend taught me how to drive at the ripe ol age of 15! I am guilty of teaching my daughter Dootie how to drive at 15 as well! Now at 16 1/2, she does have her tempts but as you know, in the State of Ga you can’t drive by yourself without having someone in the car with a valid drivers license. But here is the kicker! Pootie comes out of nowhere and says, “yeah and mom we had on our seat belts and Dootie is a good driver!” I looked at him and my heart dropped! You have to know my son and he is the most compassionate kid, soft spoken, nerdy and techy lil boy that does nothing wrong! He always tells the truth and I would have never expected that from him! I said, “You got in the car too?” Both of you could have been in a bad accident or worse! I’m so surprised that you didn’t tell me Pootie, I’m so disappointed in you!” The gas station is really only one block away but I was still in shock! These two kids are going to put me in a old folks home real soon! Chile, I shut the door, called their dad and told him the story, this is what Mr, Reed said…
Me: Guess what the kids did!
Mr Reed: What happened now!
Me: They stole my car and went and bought snacks at the corner gas station
Mr Reed: he giggles and said welp, do you remember you stole your godmom’s car? It’s coming back on you now! LOL!
Me: I started laughing too but then say.. thats not funny honey, they could have got hurt! Stop laughing!
Mr Reed: Did they bring you some snacks back?
Me: Click em!
The moral of the story is… I always wanted my kids to learn how to drive just in case something happened but never in a million years did I think they would steal my car and go buy snacks and didn’t even bring me nothing back, these damn kids, I tell yah! Love your kids, teach them right from wrong but always keep one eye open and hide your keys! Lawd, till next time LOL! xoxo
