Aidan and I are leaving blinkingly early tomorrow morning. We are going on a whirlwind mother-daughter adventure, a Christmas present given to us by hubby. Aidan will experience her first flight. I will experience my first time flying with a child.
We are packing very, very, very cute clothes. One of us has actually squealed with delight whilst packing. The clothes are that stinking cute. I need to brush up on how much to tip to various service individuals. I need to figure out a map of the destination-city’s rapid transit system. I’d like to get from Point Amazing to Point Bewildering with as little time and expense left in our touristy, gawky wake. We don’t have a lot of time to waste, with tickets and reservations to honor.
I think we are both a little nervous. She’s never flown and has a lot of questions about the jet (“is there power while the airplane is flying?”). I’m worried I will somehow screw up and we will find ourselves in a bus station in Cleveland. I realize I’ve been pretty cryptic about where we are going…
We are not going to Cleveland.
I’ll have all the fun details on Sunday or Monday.
I’m on the edge of my seat!
Have a wonderful time and I’m sure you two will create some very special memories. Can’t wait to hear all about it. Take lots of pictures!
I hope you have a wonderful time. You guys sound like so much fun. And wow! What a great dh. That sounds like a SUPER great present.

Have a wonderful time! My cousin took her daughter there from Cleveland last fall and she went ga-ga! I’m sure Aiden will love it!
You’ll both do great on the flight and I bet you’ll have a wonderful time at your destination too!
You enjoy! These moments are precious. And may this trip be a trip you look back on years from now with delight.
Have a good time! Good for you!
Have a wonderful time. I’ve never flown with one of my children. It sounds exciting! 😀 (My son especially asks Jesus every night for a ride on an airplane!)
I’m sure Aidan (and you) will do great on the plane. Have a fantastic time, but try to keep the squealing in check. 😉
Hmmm, near Cleveland . . . I’m stumped. Can’t wait for the next episode. That sounds SO fun, mother-daughter, sigh. I’ll live vicariously through your next post.
Can’t wait to hear the details–
How exciting! I’m sure you will both have so much fun together, and I can’t wait for your next post.
Sounds like fun! I hope you both have a wonderful time. I’m sure you will return with great stories and amazing memories!
Enjoy! Have some great mommy-daughter time!
Oh, how fun! Have a great time on your mother-daughter getaway. I can’t wait to find out the secret destination!
(Wait, can I skip to the end, like a Nancy Drew Mystery? I wanna know NOW!)
A secret get-away sounds delicious. One on one time with your daughter sounds fabulous. I will look forward to all of the yummy details on our girls night out!
That sounds awesome!! I hope you guys have a GREAT time
Sounds like lots of fun! Can’t wait to hear where you’re going and how the trip went!
What a great idea! Have fun — I wish you were coming here : )
Awesome! I know you’re there right now and hope all went smooth… and I also can’t wait to hear how it all went.
I’m so excited for you!! I’m also on the edge of my seat waiting for details! I’m really looking forward to girls night out!
I bet you’re having the most wonderful time.
