I’m not starting something new with this, as much fun as it could be, but I did want to share something from last Tuesday.
While Big J and I were at the orthodontist, Mr. G took Little J for a sight seeing flight. Little did he know that the pilot would hand over control to our 10 year old.
That’s my baby girl in the pilot seat, flying a plane!! Yikes! She couldn’t even see over the dash. What an awesome experience for her. I’m just glad that I wasn’t given anytime to think or worry about their adventure. I was busy with the boy, otherwise I’d have been a nervous wreck!
I’m sure this is one of those experiences that will last a lifetime for Little J. I’m sure she had fun, and I suspect the pilot was not a bit worried, either. It’s probably a good thing you and Big J were not along for the ride (grin). What a fun time she must have had, and a what a story she will have to tell.
I’m sure the pilot had everything well in hand and that was an amazing experience for her. When I was about 12 we “trick or treated” a local airport and one of the pilot’s took us up for a ride, after we got our parents approval. That was a long time ago but I still remember it very clearly.
WOWEE what a summer to remember with that exciting experience!!!
I so get what you’re saying about no fore warning…it was a good thing ;)
