Hello.

I write to you from Louisiana. We got here on Wednesday. I feel like I just recovered from our trip down, and we’ll be loading back up in about 24 hours to return to Alabama.

Thinking about the trip home makes me want to cry. The thought of being in a car again for 6+ hours with a screaming two-year-old … I just don’t know if I can take it. Does anyone have experience with drugging their children for a car trip? I’m not kidding.

No one understands what it’s like to travel with our kid. I can’t explain it to you except to say it’s a enclosed, mobile, HELL. He has a very short attention span. Drugs are my only option.
