Tales of a…Chauffer

Our best conversations happen in the car.  Probably because I refuse to invest in any kind of TV or portable dvd players so my kids can be entertained as I drive 1.3 miles to the grocery store.  And sadly, my 5 and 8 year old are the most unlucky on the planet because they do not own iTouches, iPads, iPhones, iPods or even (gasp)….a DS.  So as a result we are forced to tune in to the radio (not even satellite), and each other.  As much as it drives me crazy to hear the fighting, the whining, and the feel of little feet kicking into my back as I drive, it will most certainly end up in laughter and a reminder that, albeit cliché to say, I should cherish these moments with my little people.
