Ready or Not...

Mate and I have learned over the years that there are certain situations in life that are naturally stressful (moving, for example).  During those times, we agree that it's okay if we temporarily don't like each other.  Whatever annoying/aggravating things we do during the stressful period are immediately forgiven.  We're taking this approach for our first flight with Mia and Ava.  The plan is for me to handle the stroller and the girls.  He's in charge of the car seats and luggage.  Whatever happens between the time we leave our house and the time we arrive at the hotel happens.  Of course, the goal is to be pleasant the entire time, but we've learned that isn't always possible.  Once we get situated, we become fully accountable for our actions once again.  It may not work for everyone, but we fully endorse this practice.
