Virginia or BUST

"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body."
~Elizabeth Stone

Zoe is on a plane as I blog...headed for Virginia and I feel the words of the quote above with full empathy. She was excited...to say the least. Having never ridden in a plane before, she has expectations which include among them "cloud catching"! I am sure that she is after those clouds right now!
She is spending the next five days with her Grandpa Pat and Grandma Sally. She will also be visiting her Uncle David and his clan! Sally says that they have a lot planned for her to do and I am sure that she will get NO sleep tonight thinking about it!
However, the most interesting part of the trip for me, will be her flight back on Tuesday. You see, she will be an unaccompanied minor...and be "watched over" by her very own flight attendant.(WOW...still not sure that I am ready for that!!) Boy, I wish I could be the person seated next to or near her on the return trip and listen as she relays the adventures of her trip!

Lord, seems like I just gave birth to her yesterday and today she is a big time traveler...well almost. Here are a couple of pictures I took of her before she left this afternoon...please excuse the chips in the teeth but she was in a hurry...lots of things to do and places to go ya know!!
