The friendly skies
We made it to DC, and I’m happy to report (while hoping I don’t jinx us for the trip home) that the plane ride couldn’t have gone better. Despite a one-hour delay, both girls were quite well-behaved and rather happy; neither one slept much during the flight, but they still made it (relatively) easy for us.
We also learned on the trip just how much of a flying pro Zoe has become. When we were waiting in line for security, she called out to me, “Look, Mommy!” and when I looked down I discovered she had already taken off her shoes (without being asked). She obviously knew what we were about to do! And later, once on the plane, she said out of the blue, “I want some peanuts.” They weren’t serving any on this particular flight – but maybe next time!
