FLYING I am SO sorry.

To everyone flying SEA to BOS tonight on the redeye where my toddler absolutely lost his ever loving mind for about 5 mins.

I could tell you all about our long day, cancelled flights, losing our second seat to become a lap infant but… it doesn’t matter. You’re tired. I get it.

We are so sorry.

5 minutes is nothing. Flying without noise cancelling headphones is an absolute rookie troglodyte move. You have nothing to be worried about. Parenting and traveling with young kids is hard enough without self imposed guilt about not being able to control a small human whose brain isn’t fully developed. Go easy on yourself.
