Question: Who gets traffic violations while visiting teaching?
Answer: That would be Jennifer Henrikson, law breaker extraordinaire.
I should have posted this sooner because it probably could have served as some kind of warning, but I was temporarily ashamed of my criminal behavior.
I apparently failed to come to a screeching, full and complete stop at the corner of Kinsrow & Commons. I was casually chatting with my dear visiting teaching companion about the hand of the Lord in my life and how I am watched over and blessed, when I see flashing lights and the intimidating motorcycle of Officer Lobuter in my rear view mirror. It is a good thing Officer Lobuter stomped out this visiting teaching joy ride before it got seriously out of hand.
I'm a true supporter and appreciator of law enforcement and fortunately grew up with a lead foot father who raised me to believe that traffic tickets are like a tax lottery. I'm proud to pay my tax. It took sometime but I believe I can see a message somewhere between the thick irony-I need to STOP and take the time to appreciate the blessings in my life...I need to STOP and make sure I'm not just going through the motions when I visit teach...and maybe sometimes, I need to just STOP.

Ha ha ha! This is so funny. That cop parks right outside our window and Blake and I sit and watch him pull people over almost everyday. We even thanked him for protecting our neighborhood from hooligans...like visiting teachers. Sorry to hear that you got a ticket, but just know, I might have been watching!
Ah, a hooligan free neighborhood...not on my watch Kristin, as long as I breath your neighgorhood will have at least one hooligan wishing to wander through it in a menacing fashion.
