Story Hour...

You know you're getting old when
the little girl you used to take to story hour
is now reading the books at story hour.

...or when your Sunday afternoon is spent teaching her to drive
around the neighborhood...in a real car.
Actually, it was fun.
We had a lot of laughs and only once did I yell "STOP...BRAKES"!!!:-)
