Awe, the first is always bittersweet! In another year you will be loving the fact that you can send him to the store for last minute items you need! And you get a driving break when you just don't wanna do it! I hated when my first started driving, broke my heart he was growing up on me. Now I have three drivers and one waiting until Nov when he can start and I love it! I dislike driving anyway, so that helps, lol. And of course, the pups love it as they get to go much more...the excuse the kids use to go someplace, the dogs wanna, lol.
