Speeding

The other day I passed a cop and instinctly tapped my brakes. I think that I will always and forever do that. Colby asked me if I was speeding. I said that I was a little. He responds, "Parker's don't speed mom!"

Everytime the boys complain about something or ask why they have to do this or that, I respond with, "That's what Parkers do." Like: Why do we have to go to church EVERY week (Caels new weekly question) Response: Parkers go to church. That's what Parkers do. OR ??: Why do we have to help clean up after EVERY church event? Response: Because that what Parkers do. Or ??: Why do we have to go shovel everyones driveway for free? Response: Because that's what Parkers do.

I loved that he told me that! I love it! Even if I was only 4 mph wrong, I was in the wrong. And I love that Colby corrected me on it! I love that he used my own saying (that I got from Chet by the way), and taught me something important in the meantime! They watch EVERYTHING we do, and we are modeling for them how to drive now. I only have a short 4 years before mine will be driving. Everytime I drive with my boys, they are learning what is OK to do while driving.
