Back Seat Driving

Nathan loves to give a play by play from the back seat. I always know what Hannah has thrown or when Hannah has taken off her shoes and socks. (Lately, the shoes are off before we've backed out of the garage.)

Yesterday when I was entering the freeway, Nathan frantically called out, "Mom, you're driving on the grass again!"

Let the record show, I do not regularly drive on the grass, but occasionally I have backed up too far in our driveway...

But because I was not backing up and very, very far from our driveway, I could not imagine what he was talking about.

I looked out the window at that moment and saw the median that he could see from his window. "Oh, I get it. No honey, just because you can see grass out your window, doesn't mean Mommy's driving on the grass".

Good to know he's watching out for me though.
