News Flash, alert the world!

It's official, my oldest granddaughter now has her beginner's permit. Not only that but I understand (from an unimpeachable source - her younger sister) that her other grandmother is giving her driving lessons. So are her mom and dad, I'm sure, but that doesn't concern me. What does concern me is the idea that she might want to drive my car. Now, for a long time her other grandma and I have had a non-compete agreement. We don't try to out do each other with Christmas or birthday gifts and this works very well for us. But I'm very protective of my little blue car and my granddaughter too.  Her other grandmother drives a big, heavy GMC SUV which I think is a safer training car than a Fiat. That's my rationale and I'm going to stick to it, at least for the first few months of her driving adventure.
