Manda was so excited to buy her own old truck this last summer. She was even more excited to finally get it running and take it out for a drive. Her Dad helped her learn how to drive the big manual beast and in her excitement she posted something on her facebook that said "I took my baby out for a drive". It wasn't too much after that post that I got a message from a friend in Texas telling me congratulations on being a Grandma. I was a little thrown off by that and asked her if she knew something that I didn't? She quickly replied that she had heard that my daughter got married (Yes, true... but it was Laura) and that I was a Grandma now. I reminded her that it was Laura that got married and that they were not expecting to my knowledge. My friend explained that she was confused because she saw something on my daughters facebook that mentioned taking her baby out for a Sunday drive. I just had to laugh when I put all the pieces together and explained that the baby that she was referring to was only her red 65 International pickup truck! So if any of you are confused, relax, I am not a Grandma quite yet, only the mother of a daughter totally in love with an old truck! (ummm... see next post)
