Amy & Aron's

Here it is.  The moment I have been anticipating and dreading at the same time for the last 18 years. Yes, even during pregnancy,  I worried about my daughters driving ability. I'm taking the steps trusting my sweet baby girl to be her own taxi. It's a little harder than I thought it would be.

By the way, she doesn't know yet. It's going to be a HUGE surprise. She thinks she has to wait until her 18th birthday.  Shes is through with high school in 2 months. That 2 months really surprised us, it was supposed to 7 months but, she's ahead of schedule. Good job baby. We are so proud of you. But I'm really not ready. I wasn't ready for the later date, not to mention the fastly approaching new date!!

Because of that, she will be done before she's 18. She won't have any of that -driving herself experience that we wanted her to have. My original plan would have given her 4 months after she turned 18 of driving while in school. Being cool, being able to learn how to rely on herself, understand timing and it's importance.

I drove myself to school my senior year.  I felt, grown. So, let's pass that confidence down to her. Let her experience life as an independent hard working student. In my opinion, self-reliant adulting is very important. She has been learning how to be a functioning human, her whole life. I don't want the next step into adulthood to be a surprise. No excuses that start with "I didn't know".

Little by little, we have been giving her more responsibility. It's hard. I have been watching her grow into this intelligent and beautiful young lady. Definitely bittersweet. Ok enough about that, I'm going to make myself cry, more.

I've been planning an emergency roadside kit for her for years. But, now that we're down to the wire, I'm double checking everything. Second, guessing everything. Tripple checking all of the  Making upgrades and adjustments as needed. You never know when something as simple as a flat tire can leave you stranded without the correct tools.



One thing that I keep in my car that I've always told her is a good flashlight.  Even in a nonemergency situation,  flashlights are a must.

I just got one from LA Police Gear that is SO AWESOME! I want for my car!! This has great features and is very user-friendly.  Its Rechargeable too so no batteries are needed.




What comes in the box?

• Expedition Rechargeable Flashlight 
• 2600nAh battery
• Holster
• Lanyard
• USB cable
• 2 Extra O Rings
• Removable clip 
• User Manual

All of the pieces are so functional.



The flashlight allows for several carrying options.  The strap is made to attach to a belt loop, the metal loop allows for clipping to something. The removable clip is perfect for non- holster use. It clips right to a pocket or the waistband. The lanyard is really cool. I connected it to the hole at the button end of the flashlight. It could also connect to several other places on the clip. Not to mention,  it's compact design will fit right into any pocket.
