My sweet girl was not even five months old when she went on her first plane trip.
I was 16 when I was on a plane for the first time!
I guess in “this day and age” it’s not that rare. Flights are less expensive, especially with airlines like Southwest.
By the time she was 5 months old she’d been to Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Virginia, mostly as part of our Great American Christmas Roadtrip.
I hope, like her mom, Libbie will love to travel. There’s so much out there to see. So much to experience in other cultures. I hope she will appreciate the accessibility we have to the rest of the world that many generations have not had. I also hope she recognizes the work of God’s hands in the mountains of Montana, the waterfalls of Brazil, and the oceans of Thailand.
Like any parent, I want her to have everything I’ve had and more.
How far has your child traveled?

I'm enjoying reading your 12 days of Libbie!
My daughter had her first flight at 6 weeks old! By the time she was one, she had been on 9 roundtrip flights. We don't live near any family and like to travel, so we took advantage of her being small and portable. lol! I guess the farthest she went was when we flew to Miami and took a cruise to Key West and Cozumel.
I'm loving all of these photos of Libbie!
I don't know if it counts…but I always tell Emily that she's been to Brazil because I found out I was pregnant the day before I went on a mission trip.
Now, 6 years later, the pastor that led that trip is going to baptize her in November.
@servantsheart If that counts, Libbie's been to Mexico and Colorado too!!
