This is close to car related .. almost!
A Mom was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe. So she asked a neighbor if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance so he probably wouldn't notice her .
She said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well so she agreed.
The neighbor and her little girl set out follow behind Timmy and another neighbor girl. For a week she followed them as they walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs. Timmy's little friend noticed the same lady was following them. So she said to Timmy Have you noticed that lady following us to school all week? Do you know her?
Timmy nonchalantly replied, Yeah I know who she is.
That's just Shirley Goodnest and her daughter Marcy.
Well why is she following us asked Timmy's little friend?
Well , every night my Mom makes me say the 23rd Psalm with my prayers, cuz she worries about me so much.
And in the Psalm, it says, Shirley Goodnest and Marcy shall follow me all the days of my life, so I guess I'll just have to get used to it!
