After sixteen years of waiting, Matthew is finally a legal driver. He got about thirty minutes advance notice for his driving test, which happened on Saturday morning. He was actually in the middle of a rehearsal for the musical but told them he was skipping out for a while to take his test. Skipping out on something like that is definitely not his style, which tells you how important getting his license is to him! Once the test was successfully completed, all he had to do was go to the DLD and do the final paperwork. An appointment was scheduled for first thing yesterday morning with the knowledge that he would miss most of his first class of the day, but unfortunately, Matthew got sick and spent the morning in the instacare getting hooked up to an IV to get rehydrated and pumped full of antinausea meds instead. But this afternoon, with the worst of the illness behind him, he was off to become a legal driver. And then he did his first ever solo drive on the snowiest, most slippery roads we’ve had in quite a while. There is so much snow that today was a snow day/virtual learning day for both Matthew and Malia. But he’s legal! And gleeful about it!
