Family Life blog - Juggling Mama

I have been known as the unofficial head of the anti- mini van club! I have been head chair for all my life. However I recently was forced to hand over my title and card carrying membership.

 While the very thought of driving  the sliding door, mom mobile use to make me cry a little , I am here to say that I was wrong!

Recently I borrowed a friends as I was having all her kids too and didn’t have the room for everyone. Mind you I was squishing 5 kids plus me into a small classy SUV ! (Don’t ask) So I needed more room for a while. But I would never consider a mini van. What would the girls think? I had held rallies against them, burned caravan flags in the street! It was bad enough I had to borrow it, let alone be caught driving it.

So what would they say when on day two I fell head over heals in love with my friends mini van!

Yeah, I know what you are thinking, but I couldn’t help it. The seats were so comfy, the kids had so much room, the  doors opened by themselves! I mean this thing was amazing and I had to have one.

So I handed in my card sent my hubby out to deal with the Wolfe like sales men, and now I am a happy owner of a new mini van! Well new to me a 2007 Kia sedona:)

I never knew I would love a car so much. I still am fighting the need to buy mom jeans, and I prom is I will never show up to drop off in curlers, smoking a cigarette.
