Danee Made a Friend

Danee made the most of her layover at LAX Friday evening, befriending and completely bewitching a kindly older woman, who scoped us out from across the waiting area, and moved over and asked if she could play with our baby... They were instant best friends!



Danee's new friend was named Samena, and she very quickly learned that our baby girl's hands are faster than the eye... or even the eyeglasses!



Little Babykins had slept about 20 minutes on the flight to LAX, so she was WAY overdue for a nap... Samena had the magic touch, and after several minutes of playtime, it was naptime.



Naptime lasted through the rest of our layover...



...and then we had to put a frighteningly prompt finish to it, when I realized that our tickets were wrong - instead of our flight leaving from gate 71B (where this whole story took place), it was leaving from gate 71A! Thankfully they're next-door-neighbors, but by the time we realized it, our plan was nearly all boarded so we barely made it on! Danee was much happier after her nap and playtime, and Cindy and I were recharged after a break from travel-parenting.

Thanks Samena!!
