Sam is a seasoned road-tripper by now, but each trip brings some new enlightenment.
Here are a few nuggets from this weekend:
• Any thought (yours or his) can be interrupted at any time with, “I see train tracks!”
• Inside voices do not exist in cars.
• A toddler who is just about to conk out sounds like a radio whose batteries are going out. E-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g s-t-a-r-t-s s-o-u-n-d-i-n-g s-l-o-w…
• Going the long way to avoid the worst of Houston rush hour is totally acceptable to the toddler who’s been in a car seat for 4+ hours as long as you promise more train tracks and a BIG bridge with BIG ships under it.
• Chick-fil-a french fries make even the most frustrating potty stop worthwhile.
• Mommy chair-dancing to the radio is hiccup-inducing funny.
• Swimming in Grandma’s pool before the drive home is the best. idea. ever – Sam slept for nearly 3.5 hours (more than half the drive home, if anyone’s counting).
• Cousin time and Grandparent time is divine, but so is coming home.
Do you take road trips as a family? What have you learned from them?
