my son's first, and mine too

I remember mine.

A brown (my least favorite color) 1978 (or maybe '77) Toyota Corolla. Its only features were AC and an automatic transmission. I think I paid $4,000 for it.

My son lives in Philadelphia. He took driver's ed in high school and got his license in 2011. I think the next time he drove was last year. He needed to for work.

Alexander's been renting cars, and wanting his own for a while. He did all the research and ended up buying a 2018, well-rated Honda Civic.


It arrives today and he's very excited, as he should be. 

He texts me pictures, showcasing his new baby from every angle. And then this.



Addendum:

After reading this post, my friend Gary emails me the following:

If you are now the grandmother, I sure hope (for your sake) that he doesn’t expect you to pay for the care of the baby :)
