For mothers of little kids, a child’s birthday is all about bouncy houses and goody bags. But when your kid turns 17, it’s all about the driver’s license — especially for boys. I can’t say I was ready for this milestone, but when the time came (and it came early, because we had an 8 a.m. appointment in Wayne), I was rooting for him. Here’s what it looked like.

  1. Congratulations Noah! The Coldplay song playing at the end was perfect:
    Gravity, release me,
    and don’t ever hold me down.
    Now my feet won’t touch the ground.

  2. Congrats to Noah! Also, what do you mean especially for boys? I was at the DMV at 8am to take my drivers test the day I turned 17 and it was all I looked forward to for months beforehand.
