the eagle has flown

i took jj to the airport to fly as an unaccompanied minor. i knew she could do it. she knew she could do it. she has traveled extensively for her 15 years. before she was one year old, she had already been to 9 countries. she has been on lots of plane trips. we knew she would be fine, but one can’t help feeling a bit tense sending off one’s child on her own on a long trip. we checked in then had a little dinner together. then i brought her back to the check-in desk and a lady took her to the front of security line. they went through and disappeared. she will go directly to the plane and be the first one to board. i texted p “the eagle has flown, the package is sent”.
she will be guided through transfer in london.
it was fine. she was fine.
