The story of the red balloon...

So l have to sit and tell you all the story of the red balloon.

The other night my husband and l were sitting on the couch watching tv with kids, when we noticed that Dylan seemed to be really busy. He ran to his room and grabbed his pillows as well as his blankets and layed them all out in a nice little pile in front of the couch. Then he climbed onto the couch and started tying the red balloon string around his foot. With that he got up...standing on the couch and started flapping his arms so so fast. He had such determination on his face....then he jumped...into his pile of stuff.

He layed there for a secon, with a look on his face like "why didn't it work" and then looked over at my husband and l and said "why can't l fly".

My husband and l really got a good laugh at him. His imagination was truly makin him feel that if he tied this red balloon around his ankle that he would be able to fly. Honestly the way that he was flapping his arms l thought he just may take off :)

You have to enjoy the imagination of a three year old.
