The Flight Home
Many of you asked how Durant did on the plane ride home. I wanted to let you know that he did awesome. The first flight left Ethiopia at 11pm so he just slept all the way until Frankfurt at 5am. We had a short layover there. Time to change a diaper, have a snack, and walk around a little bit. The next flight from Frankfurt to Chicago was 9 hours. I was worried how he would do, but he was great. He took a couple of naps, had snacks, and played with toys. Of course we left our area of the plane a complete disaster, but he was happy. We didn't even have to walk around the plane and he hardly even cried. The passengers around me we're very impressed with his behavior.
In Chicago, after customs and immigration, we had some time to change clothes, eat a snack, and walk around some more. The last flight to MSP was super quick and Durant did great on that as well.
So thank you to all who were praying specifically for a great flight! Not that I'm ready to hop on a plane anytime soon, but at least I know we have children that can handle it!!!
