When my kids were little I used to have them line up on one of the lines of the parking place as we were getting out of the car in random parking lots. I trained them to line up in age order and even the youngest, whichever one that happened to be at the time, learned quickly to stand there and not move until I was at the front of their line and ready. That gave me a chance to get strollers, bags, or whatever else we might need out of the car and ready without worrying about them running around in the parking lot or accidentally stepping in front of any moving vehicles. Today we went out to eat for breakfast and my 21, 18, 16, and 14 year old children all piled out of the passenger side of the van. When I came around to the back of the van, this is what I saw…
It made me smile big!
