about a month ago we were in the car and i educated sam on driving. after saying he wanted me to go really fast so i could crash in to another car i figured it was a good time to tell him why that was a bad idea. i happened to include the 10 and 2 rule. i also happened to tell him that it would be funny for him to randomly yell "10 and 2" next time he was in the car with his daddy. (yes, ron and i use our son to play jokes on each other every now and then.) well, it backfired. sam tells me at least every other day "2 and 10 mommy!" how funny...

backfire
although riding in the car with sam can sometimes be frustrating because he asks a million questions, it can lead to great conversations. for example, i told him on the way to church this past sunday that his friend pierson wouldn't be there because his great granddad was sick. that initial statement led to many questions which led to the discussion of the fall of man. heavy stuff for a 4 year old...

Yep!! sometimes, your words will come back to haunt you. Sure hope you are recording these little ditties from the boys, you won't regret it one of these days. :) Love, B
So what's the 10 and 2 rule? KC
We learned in Driver's Ed that both hands are supposed to be on the wheel like a clock's 10 and 2 position. So if Sam sees me with only one hand on the bottom of the steering wheel, he says 2 and 10... so funny!
