What conversation does Aimee remember having about flying to L.A. for the start of school and then back again for her cousin's bar mitzvah?

Aimee remembers that her mother did not think they should fly to L.A. for the start of school and then back again for her cousin's bat mitzvah. She did not think that the first few days of school were that important anyway. Besides, it would be too expensive to fly back and forth. Aimee's dad had said it is difficult to start a new school, but Aimee's mother won the argument.
