Christmas Brake

No, that's not a typo. We've had a two week break from our homeschool routines and have enjoyed the time to relax and play a lot together. A few days ago, I left the house with the boys in our Saturn wagon. I didn't get very far before realizing that something was terribly wrong with our brakes. I slowly headed back home and parked it, and we took it into the shop the next morning. Seems our master cylinder needs replacing. When my dad heard about this latest car crisis, he asked, "Well, what were you studying in school this week?" (reference my earlier post about our flat tire lesson). My reply: "Well, we were on break!"
