We're heading back to San Diego at the end of the summer and a part of me is already dreading the drive.
I know 45 minutes in, the snacks will be gone, someone will announce 'this is boring,' and we'll still have most of the drive ahead of us.
Every family trip we take with young kids ends up feeling like a logistical operation disguised as a vacation. The planning, the packing, the trying-to-stay-calm-in-traffic part.
And yet somehow the memories we end up talking about most are always from those exact moments. The chaotic, imperfect, didn't-go-as-planned ones.
Funny how that works.
