A mom was just trying to get to work when the vehicle in front of her was slowing her down. Finally, she reached a stoplight and was able to pull closer. As she did, she noticed a sign on the SUV’s rear window. When she read what it said, she quickly captured a photo for everyone to see.
Hailey is a “mom, wife, Mormon, counselor, and professional panicker with a minor polka dot and zombie obsession,” according to her blog Thoughts, Dots, and Tots. Just like the rest of us, the busy mom, devoted wife, and carrying member of her community gets frustrated with life now and then.
With a laundry list of responsibilities, thanks to the many hats she wears, she’s often on the go and in a hurry. As we’ve all experienced for ourselves, when you have someplace to be, it’s easy to get frustrated when you find yourself stuck behind a slow-moving vehicle, especially when you need to hurry up and get to work.
That was the case for Hailey on one otherwise ordinary morning. The older SUV in front of her was obviously having some issues, although she initially wasn’t sure what was causing the delay. But, it would all be made very clear when the working mom got closer and noticed a sign on the back window of the Ford in front of her.
As she read the words, “Learning stick, sorry for any delay,” Hailey was hit with a realization — and it was about herself, not the driver in front of her. It made such an impact, she quickly took to Facebook after snapping a picture to reveal what she immediately realized about not only herself but those of us who share the road and this world with one another.
