We've called Aidan our little prophet for sometime now. He just seems to know things or say things that completely make sense later. This morning, about 10 minutes from our house his statement "The road is not safe", seemed possible but not probable. An hour later as we were being taken off of the interstate due to icy conditions his prediction seemed a little scary. The two semis in front of us re-entered the interstate so we followed. Where else were we going to go? Back on the interstate we were down to two lanes, very slow driving and it became clear we were driving on solid ice. We saw some horrible semi accidents, a lot of cars and trucks in the ditch but we kept going. Some time north of Indy we drove out of it and it was smooth sailing the rest of the way. What was supposed to be an 8 hour drive turned into a 10.5 hour drive. The next time the boy says, "the road is not safe", we turn around and go home. Even if the sun is shining.
Aidan loved seeing the tall buildings in Chicago. His comment, "That tall building not fall down either."
The kids really did a nice job during the drive and since they were sleeping before we made it to the hotel, they were ready to go upon arrival. Off to the pool we went. Aidan loved it and Isabella took some time to get used to it but was then playing like a champ!
