lifting off in 10...9...8...7...

Sir O was in HEAVEN today. (and this lovely shade of blue is proof that Mr Renn doesn't check camera settings before firing away)

He was a gracious little gift-receiver. Each present got lots of ooh's and aaahhs. I loved it.
Mr Renn on the other hand, wasted no time telling me which gifts would have to be returned....
made me a titch ornery.
Oh well.
T minus x# hours until our flight. We have 2, count 'em 2 layovers. Meaning a) - we're going to make a flight pattern of a loop-de-loop, and b) it is going to be one long slog of a day..... for all of us. 12 hours of it. Why don't we just go to Europe for Christmas? Oh wait, I remember why.
Let's just hope we don't sit by any "spawn of satan" types.... I'm really not up for it. And Sir O, I can promise you, is going to throw at least a half-dozen tantrums. He's recently discovered the power of arching your back and flailing your limbs while screaming like a little girl. The novelty hasn't worn off yet and he's always looking for opportunities to hone his craft.
Good luck wishes, prayers, and positive vibes are all appreciated.

Good luck on the flight! It can be so nerve racking. Thank goodness Renn will be with you. Say lots of prayers and think calm thoughts.
