My son always gets airsick (are you telling me with 6 kids not one has a fussy stomach?) and my daughter apparently has the same name as some terrorist and so, when she was 4, she got pulled from the line and got subjected to a full-scale interrogation. Everything else was hassle free, but still!Linda Pressmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809808676659629555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273175002472753405.post-68910425052033854302010-02-20T18:48:47.174-08:002010-02-20T18:48:47.174-08:00Haha!
