Like, Mooom, I'm, Like, Sooooo Embarrassed

....says my fifteen 5 year old (or at least her tone says it all). It's not like it hasn't snowed every day for the past month (slight exaggeration) but really, there's snow... and lots of it! And as I was turning the corner to pick up Austin at school the other day, the back end of my mom van swung sideways and we slip~slided 15 feet or so. As I regained control, I waved to a mom friend passing the other way. Audrey caught my wave and asked who it was that I was waving to. I told her T's mom (T just happens to be THE BOY that Audrey has had her eye on since the first day of preschool last year. She has told me several times very matter of factly that she is going to marry him someday.) "Mom!" she exclaims, "you shouldn't be driving like that!" and in her best valley girl impersonation she continues, "she's (T's mom) gonna think you, like, don't know how to driiii~ve!"
