My mother turned the key and the car's engine came to life with a roar. Our white garage door lifted off the cold ground and our car began to reverse. Before I knew it we were on the road heading to jacobs elementary school.

We pulled into the crowed parking lot and came to a compleate stop. 

"Elena honey can you please take jakie in I have to make a phone call."  cooed my mother. 

I rolled my eyes and agreed, but only because it was a good day. I got out of our red car and open the door to the back seat, to help jacob out of his car seat. (booster seat as he likes to call it)

"I can dooo it" he wined. I let out a chuckle as i stepped back with my hands in the air as if i was surrendering. He struggled to un buckle himself and jumped out of his car seat onto the black pavement. Together we walked hand in hand into the huge brick school. When you walk through the large front doors, all of the teachers are waiting with a sign that has their class number on it. I walked through all the comotion and handed jacob over to the teacher holding a sign that read "class 1C" and gave her a smile.

"see you this afternoon" said the teacher softly. 

I gave jacob a quick wink and made my way back to the car where my mom was waiting. I climbed in and imediatly a rush of excitment and bliss filled my body. 

"Ready to goto the DMV" my mom said as she hung up her phone. "yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes" i annoyingly replied. 

This was it. Seconds later my mom put the car into drive and we were off. 

After what seemed like hours we pulled into a run down looking building with a line that wrapped around the side. It was so long it was like we were at six flags staring at the most popular ride. Devastated by how long we would have to wait i sullenly got into the line with my mother by my side. 

An hour passed before we made in to the front desk, and it was now 9 o'clock.

"We're here to pick up a lisence my daughter went to driving school and took the test there so we will just need someone to help us get a liscence made" my mother said clearly. 

The woman behind the desk was kind of gross looking. I mean i'm not mean or anything but she had this gold tooth and a giant hairy wart on her face that seemed to be staring back at me. I swallowed in disgust and looked away feeling a bit nausous. 

"slip please" demanded the woman. My mother handed her a tiny piece of paper indicating i had passed my drivers test.  The woman let out a burp as she took the slip and pointed left to a room that was located down a long hallway. Even more disgusted than i was before I followed her crooked finger to a room that had a camera and a stool to sit on as your picture was being taken. My mother stayed in the waiting room so i was all alone waiting for whoever was going to take my picture. 

Finally a short man walked in said "say cheese" and was gone before i even knew what happend. Assuming I was finished i walked back into the ugly waiting room that housed the nasty gold tooth lady and took a seat next to my mom in the cold plastic chairs.  She handed me a few forms to fill out and i was done in no time. We carried the forms up to the desk of the gold tooth lady and placed them infront of her. 

"Ok thank ya darlings I will call you up when your lisence is ready" said the gold tooth lady. 

A few moments passed until she finally called us over. 

"be safe" encouraged the gold tooth lady as she handed me my lisence. My very own drivers lisence. A huge smile krept across my face as i felt the smooth plastic lower into my hands. "at last" i thought. Never again will i pressure my mom for a ride, or listen to my bestfriend, haylee, rat on me for always asking her to pick me up. 

"lets go honey" As i heard these three words i snapped out of my day dream and followed my mom to the car. "you drive" she said with a grin. 

I entered the drivers seat with no protest. I adjusted the mirror, fastened my seat belt, turned the key and began to press the gas.
