When people marvel at how “brave” I am for traveling with a toddler, I tell them I’m not uniquely courageous—just battle-hardened. I’ve been traveling with my 2.5-year-old son, Julian, since he was five weeks old. His first adventure beyond our home state of Minnesota was ice fishing in Wisconsin. As I steeled up my nerves (and started getting more than three hours of sleep a night), I got gutsier about where I was willing to take him. At 10 months old, we planned a family trip to San Diego; it was a low-key disaster. Ever the optimist, I didn’t let that deter me: When Julian turned one, we took him to an all-inclusive resort in the Mexican Caribbean. When he was 16 months, he joined my husband and me on our honeymoon in the Faroe Islands and Iceland. And when he turned 20 months old, I took him on a 23-day solo venture to Tanzania, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates.
