Things have been going pretty good at the 'ole Freeman house. Blake and I are both wrapping up the school year. TCAP is over. There are actually 22 days of school left at my last count, 19 if you count the personal day, dental appointment, and appointment with a paper gown the last week of school.
We did bid a farewell about three weeks ago to "my car, " White Lightning, as I liked to call her. She was a "good one," but it was time for her to go to a new family to make new memories. As we bid her a farewell, several memories that stand out in my mind are:
-this was the car I had when Blake and I got married
-Blake hit the wall on the "W" road on Signal Mountain and scratched up the paint
-this automobile could probably drive itself to Dr. Childs' office during my pregnancy with Jackson
- Jackson came home with us in this car
- the infamous dog hitting incident during Christmas (I would link to go that story on my blog, but I don't know how). It involved a major part of my bumper detaching itself, as well as saying good bye to one of the fog lights.
-having a less than minor rear end collision on the way home from church and going into a crazy postpartum rage at the lady that barely tapped our bumper....WWJD? It was not one of my finer moments.
-not even sure how many hours of my life I spent nursing in this car
-turning my head just right, with the stroller in some weird contortion, just trying to get in it the trunk, whilst hoping no one is watching, or laughing
With all of that being stated, I am enjoying making new memories in my new to me, Mommy car. I love it!
And......someone has learned to climb. Look who got quiet in his room.....and look what I found!
