This afternoon after track practice I got to sit in the passenger seat and Tyler drove home. He was quite nervous but did a very good job. He will start driver's ed in a month. Before then he needs to have 20 hours of drive time (2 of which has to be in the dark).
Tonight at Casey's I helped Tyler learn how to use the machine and put gas in his moped. $1.75 later he had a full tank and was off and running again.

Birthday month has been a fantastic one for Tyler. It started off with a Spring Break trip to Denver. He then took his moped rider course in Ankeny at DMACC where Rich picked him up in the "Cynistr" Charger. It ended with him getting his instructors permit and moped. He has found a new independence and loves it. Me too;) He received lots of gifts, well wishes, and cards throughout the last week. He also attended a basketball camp which he got to drive his moped to. Tomorrow he will finish up his 4 week batting clinic which he will be driving himself to. All in all a great birthday month!
