The highlight of their travel saga was a mid-flight dance party, an impromptu celebration that failed to bring the desired sleep. Kaley recounted, “No clue what this was or why we were boppin. I was praying she would sleep so I could sleep but no we didn’t sleep no one slept ever.” Despite the exhaustion, this bonding experience between mother and daughter will be cherished.
