She's going to SO kill me for this picture - I'm sure! Well maybe not but she could at least drive down and wring my neck if she wanted now. Moms are SO corny, right?
Ok, well it felt totally weird but our girl got her licence - finally! She's in her 20's but I never got mine until I was 28. I don't recall what the holdup was for me, I guess I managed to get around on my two legs (is this why my knees are sounding like sandpaper these days?) Anyways I think I truly appreciated it when I finally did it - and so I am knowing how wonderful this must feel to our girl.
Anyways, just a few days after getting her hot little hands on her licence she calls up out of the blue on Sunday evening and says she's coming down. Not for a reason or out of duty, just coming down because she wants to hang out with us. So she came and scooped me (Mr. Miles had a meeting) and we went to Tim Hortons and she treated me to an Ice Cap. It DID feel very strange having HER drive ME! And wonderful. Seems like yesterday she was 'driving' one of those little hard plastic push toys on the sidewalk.
So, to redeem myself (and get taken out for more Tims in the future) here's a real pretty picture of us.
And in honour of this milestone event, I created a small element pack for you. Its personal use only. Hope you enjoy!

Good Evening Barb:)
Soo cool! CONGRATULATIONS on the drivers license for DD!! Hope she makes more trips now to take you to Tim Hortons.When my Mom and I get together...it's pretty much a "given" that we will go to Dairy Queen before our outing is over.:) Mom and I went out one time together and stopped at Dairy Queen.The weather was freezing and the wind blowing sooo hard and biting into us..but we still stopped to get an ice cream.Took it out to the van and when we got in we looked at each other and said...this is really stupid isn't it?Almost at the same time.hehe We were laughing so hard!:)
Love your photos and I agree..you sure don't look like Mother and daughter! I bet you had a blast!:)
Thanks for the cool elements!!
Love and hugs,
Valinda
