Stuck in College Station, TX

I am sitting on the floor in a cue at the American Airlines customer service desk in College Station, TX. Our flight from Jackson, MS was diverted here due to 70 mph winds which have closed the Dallas airport until 6 pm at the earliest. We're trying to see if we can rent a car and drive to Austin or Houston for a flight to Phoenix, but I think about a million people are trying to do the same. We're hoping to get home tomorrow at the earliest, but it could be Monday... (sigh). On the bright side, the one toy we brought for Benjamin (a wind-up airplane) is captivating him. We also brought a baby leash for the first time on this flight, which is hit-and-miss in terms of success. Last week, we tried to switch our flight to Sunday so we could have more time with friends in Jackson, but we had decided the $150 was too much. Hind-sight is always 20/20...
