Just like most teenagers Kaitlyn started asking for a car when she was 15 - using many different tactics!
As Mike would tell you we didn't buy Kaitlyn a car, but Mike and Karol bought a car that Kaitlyn uses :)
Mike and Kaitlyn looked around a little bit at cars, but we didn't work that hard at it. Mike found one he liked, but it was a stick shift. That made Kaitlyn and I nervous so we passed.
A few weeks later Mike was getting work done on his car and they had one for sale that Mike really liked. An older lady was selling it and had a folder that she kept all the information of what had been done on it. The price was right, good condition - stick shift again. I still wasn't sure so Mike and I went and test drove it without saying anything to Kaitlyn. We decided to go for it and brought it home to surprise her.
She was a little excited as you can see...
The next day she was driving in the church parking lot. Two days later out on the rode. Within 2 weeks she was driving to seminary and school with no problem. Now she drives everywhere and loves it. She looks awfully cute in "our" car!!
