... at the Betts house!
OUR FIRST CHILD HAS A FULL DRIVERS LICENCE!!!
Now for you in the US, this is nothing spectacular, since every teenager gets to drive at 16!
For you in Germany and Tahiti, it is pretty special to have a barely 17-year-old in possession of a drivers licence.
Here in NZ, it is - well - quite common, although many don't have their full licence at 17.
Jeremie passed his test with flying colours and can now take passengers with him and also drive after 10pm! In the past year and a half, he was able to drive, but without passengers (unless they had a licence themselves) and not at night.
We are so proud of Jeremie and also happy that he can finally take Leilani with him to youth group etc.
He already helped me out a couple of times today taking Leilani to where I would have normally had to drive her. YAY!!!
Tomorrow is his last day at school, the day after is the "Prizegiving Ceremony" (he will get a prize, we don't know yet in what subject), next week, he has one more exam and then - he has graduated from High School! (no graduation ceremony in NZ)
Well done, son!!!
