A heretofore undiscovered benefit of homeschooling

No carpool line.

I didn’t fully appreciate the time suckage that is the carpool line until my kids started VBS last week.  I showed up 10 minutes early only to line up and sit.

And wait.

And wait.

And then merge with another long line of cars.

And wait.

I had Audrey with me and after 10 minutes of sitting and waiting, she asked, “Mommy, can you drive?”

“I can’t,” I said, “There’s a car in front of us.”

She considered that, and then asked, “Please?”

“No, I can’t drive, but thank you for using your good manners.”

After several more minutes, we finally crawled ahead a few car lengths, and I said, “There!  We drove!”

She considered that, and then asked, “Mommy, can you drive far?”

    Funny! She’s a doll.
    I agree that carpool line is crazy. I had to pick up a friend’s kid from summer school for several days. I was so glad when his parent’s came home… ;)
