Tunnel!

When Lee had just turned two (I was pregnant with Clara at the time), Bridges had the opportunity to travel to the Netherlands for five weeks on a Rotary cultural exchange trip.  

At that time, we often drove Bridges to and from the airport, so it wasn't that unusual for us to drive him there.  Lee, though, must have understood that he was leaving for quite a while, because as soon as we drove away, she cried as if her little heart was breaking.  "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy...."  I thought "oh, no, this is going to be a long drive home."  

But just after leaving the airport, we entered the Sumner Tunnel, Lee looked up, and gleefully said "Tunnel!"   And that was that.  Ah, the power of distraction.
