My 13 yo dd and a friend are making their first unaccompanied trip tomorrow. They are flying out to visit another good friend and her family for a long weekend. Would you please pray for their safety (both in flying and in their time away) and for peace for me?

This sounded like such a great idea months ago. Now I'm feeling nervous about it all. I know that their time with our friends will be wonderful. They are old friends and a terrific Catholic family. I guess it is the details of the flights and meeting up with them on the other end that makes me most nervous. And, OK, I'll admit it. There's a bit of the post-9/11 fear of the flight itself too.

Thank you for your prayers.

Totally understand where you're coming from!

We are going to pray our family rosary and we will remember your intentions, Irene!

God Bless your dd and her friend - and for you!

I know I'd be nervous too, but mamma's prayers will keep them safe (plus the ones here ) I hope they have a lovely time.

I just got a call from dd. They made it safely and our friends were waiting for them at the gate. (Big sigh of relief.) Thank you so much for the prayers!
