3:35 a.m.

Jordan’s POV
My alarm went off and I turned around to wake up Ell. He walked out of the bathroom wide awake and ready to go.

“Good morning.” He grinned.
“Hiya.” We kissed before he headed out of the room with our luggage.
“I’m really this  No-Shave November thing by the way.” I said before going to take a shower.

“I know you are, Jordan Rae.” He smirked.

4:00 a.m.

Everything was packed and ready to go. Now to wake up the kids.
We got everyone to the car but Olive was still half-asleep and was sleep-talking.

“The bird-cage?!?!?! What about the bird-cage?” She shrieked.
“Olive. Wake up Sweetie.” I reached behind me and patted her little knee.

Her eyes shot wide open and she looked around in confusion.
“You were having a weird dream Olly.” I chuckled.
“Yeah…I had a dream that Daddy bought us an ostrich and didn’t want you to know so we hid it.”
“Oh well Daddy knows better than to bring a wild bird into the house.” I turned to Ratliff. “Doesn’t he?”
He simply smirked while keeping his eyes on the road. We checked in for our flight and I silently prayed that I wouldn’t be the one to set of the metal detector. Ramona had another breakdown because she was scared of the guards and officers. As Camden walked through, the system lit up and the alarms went off. In a matter of seconds, they were giving my four-year-old a pat down.
“Stick out your tongue.” One guy said.
Camden was quite enthusiastic about sticking his tongue out at a stranger.
The security guard started laughing.  “He had an earring in his mouth.” He explained.
“At least he didn’t choke on it.” Ratliff grinned.

“Why did you have my earring in your mouth, Camden?” I asked.
“I didn’t like it and I didn’t want you to wear it. So I put it in my mouth.”

“Ooh. Good plan. Gotta try that sometime.” Ell encouraged Tai. I frowned at Ellington.
“You could’ve just told me you didn’t like those earrings.” I chuckled.
“Yeah but I didn’t want you to be sad.”
“Aww. Thanks Camden.”
“You’re welcome, Mommy.”

We eventually got seats on the plane and the some of the kids went back to sleep.

“Eww. Mommy. That lady picked her nose.” Noele said really loudly.
“Shh..”
“But it was gross.”
“I know but don’t say it so loudly.”
“Okay, Mommy.”

7:06 a.m.

A grumpy old business man turned around in his seat.

“One of your brats…I mean…one of your children keeps kicking the back of my seat. Could you do your best to keep your rugrats in place?” He sneered.

“I’m sorry. They’re just a bit hyper.” Ratliff explained.
The guy just sighed and turned around.

9:34 a.m.
Mona, who had been sleeping through the flight, woke up and looked out the window.
“Wow…we’re really high up in the sky.” She said taking it all in. I was glad she wasn’t still freaking out about being in the air. Of course, I spoke to soon.

Just as she was about to be sick, Ell grabbed her a barf-bag and she puked a lot.

He made a face as he picked up the gross bags. “I’m gonna go dump these.”

He got up and took two steps down the aisle when suddenly, the bags bottomed out. All the grossness went everywhere and many of the passengers cringed.

I couldn’t tell what was worse; seeing my husband drenched in panic pudding at an altitude of 36,000 feet or Ramona’s crying…which was causing quite a racket.


After everything was cleaned up and we were able to laugh it off, the kids finally sat still while watching a movie.

“Sorry you got covered in barf.” I said holding Ellington’s hand.
“It’s all good.”
“Man, being a mom can sometimes be harder than it looks.”
“Well I think you’re doing a fantastic job. Keep it up. I’ll be alongside you the whole time.”
“Why thank you kind sir.”
“You’re welcome madame.”
“I love you, Ell.”
"And do you have proof to support that statement?" He smirked.
"Oh trust me. As soon as this plane lands and the kiddies are out, I'll show you proof." I winked.
"Ooh." He chuckled. "But seriously, I love you JRae."
"I love you more."
