The Flight out of Seattle

Despite our friend Brian’s predictions, they didn’t say “Now boarding rows 1 through 10, Macduffs.” Another child on the plane was much noisier than ours were. Despite the fact that no one but Joel got any sleep on the flight, all went quite well. Thanks for the prayers. The 3 of us adults felt pretty good about handling 5 kids until we deboarded and saw 1 mom handling her 3 little ones solo. We got to our hotel room at midnight local time. After ridding the room of the sweltering heat by blasting the air conditioner, we were finally able to sleep. –mel
