Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

Yesterday we went car shopping with our younger daughter, her husband and baby, and it was interesting to see how different our car needs were.  They needed something bigger, with lots of haul space, and we were downsizing, as we now have such a big family that it's impossible to go in one car no matter what it is.  We'd like to be able to accommodate a car seat for the baby boys, but a circumstance would be rare when we'd be driving them places.  And our granddaugther is older enough she doesn't need even a booster.  So I got a glimpse of my younger self, when I was so thrilled to buy a family car, and take my children's friends to soccer and that sort of thing.  And maybe they got  a gander at themselves twenty or thirty years hence, when they will thinking a small parking spaces, not birthday parties.  It goes by fast.  But they won't believe that if I tell them.
