Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

My mom let

My mom let me drive the car. Well, only on the drive way going five miles per hour at the most and with jirky stopping (I hit the brakes to fast). I hope dad will do it with me. It is really fun. When I was going five miles per hour it felt like I was going fifty miles per hour. It was scary, but fun. I got to sit on the front drivers seat and drive. Mom was on the passenger side. I can't believe that she let me do it. When we had a tractor I drove it (with A LOT of help).

I rode on my driveway.  Which is behind a bunch of trees.

In Maine I'm allowed to, but my driveway here is like 8 feet long, so it wouldn't work so well...Undecided

I've driven my father's car! It is scary. I've even driven into a ditch and I freaked out! It was a small one thankfully! But I'm actually just going to wait until I'm 15 to drive again!!

My dad used to let me drive from his lap on a dirt road when we took our dogs on walks. But, once when it was icy I ran into a snowbank and we had to borrow a shovel and dig oursleves out! SCARY EXPERIENCE!!! :D
