I hope you enjoy these posts. I've been saving them for years until I thought the time was right to share. This year, the time was right, and my daughter was ready for the drive. She's as steady as a rock, and the most dependable person I know. But if she loses her way, even for an instant, I'll be in the back seat, helping her steer.
