I was fortunate not to have this problem though cabinet locks were another thing altogether. She could break into a cabinet without any problem. Glad your son wasn't harmed during the trip.

Not great, true, but not as bad as the larger vehicles and probably better than a big V8 truck certainly.<br /><br />2) The model we have is not that expensive. Again, less than all the model of heavy duty pickups we were looking at.<br /><br />3) Also not my first choice of car. I'd love a little hybrid electric, but I have to be able to drive over giant rocks and down in ditches (similar to the tv ads for trucks!) I can't see myself driving down a creekbed in a Prius. Although that would make a good story, I guess. :)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115002505324651653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-48185586485789616992009-06-04T13:54:15.041-05:002009-06-04T13:54:15.041-05:00Ha HA safely first

Love your letters - maybe you could get a sharpe and color the duct tape black (or whatever your interior is) unless of course you want to announce to the world that you NEED to used the duct tape for lack of "standard" safety features... On second thought, I'd point it out to everyone too.

Smart thinking on the duct tape, though. I think it will compliment the finger smudges on the window and the ground in cheerios in the floorboard. :)<br /><br />-David <br /><br /><b>http://www.citywidechrisianfellowship.com</b>Davidhttp://www.citywidechristianfellowship.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-44383099359929564142009-06-04T09:50:33.472-05:002009-06-04T09:50:33.472-05:00Thank you for the laugh at you expense.
