Three Years Old and Already a Backseat Driver

Kyle and I both have scout related callings for church. He had taken the boys with him to cub scouts this evening, but I needed to be at the church for my calling right when cub scouts ended. We’ve had to do this a lot lately so that both of us can be there to do our jobs, and rather than leave the girls and Adam at home to wait for him to come back we decided that I should load them up and drive to the church. I go inside to take care of my scout business, Kyle comes out with the boys to take the van full of kids home, and that leaves me with the purple car to get home on my own when I’m done.

Tonight was another one of those nights, only when I got in the van to go, Lydia speaks out, “Mommy! Go that way! They church is that way! That way Mommy!” I asked “Which way?” and I looked back at her and she was pointing up the street. So I turned on the van and pulled out into the street in that direction. Then she yells “Watch out for kids!” because the neighborhood kids really like to play out in the street. It was just really funny.
