I Spent the afternoon entertaining my child at DCA. 
Thankfully it was only for an hour. Unfortunately It was the longest hour EVER. BUT….silver lining…I learned a few life lessons. 💕
1️⃣-Cowboys gear in Redskins territory..I mean Commanders Territory…I mean the Washington Teams territory-IDK but anywho it wasn’t the most well thought out plan. #iykyk
2️⃣-Over packing with a Colton isn’t a thing. I swear I packed 4 outfits for 2 days, yet we didn’t have enough clothes. Yes-my child is wearing high waters and yes he told everyone he saw that he has been wearing the same clothes for 24 hours.
3️⃣-When he got restless we played a fun, calm, non competitive game of rock, paper, scissors. Remind me in the future-that nothing is calm and non competitive with Colton. He got excited, dropped his water bottle, stepped on it and sprayed half of gate A9 with water.
How that happened I don’t know. The sweet lady who took most of the water..God bless her.. she tried to tell him everything was ok “because it was only water” and his response: it’s your lucky day I didn’t swap out that water with the sprite I smuggled through security. While she thought it was hilarious, I braced myself. She laughed and asked him what his name was. His response: Antoine Vermette, I’m a retired hockey player out of Canada.
I flashed back to the days when he was a baby and we would sit at the wrong gate on purpose waiting for our plane at a different gate to board so his screaming wouldn’t terrify people we were about to fly with. I should have done that today. But we will keep flying!
