We are big into balloons. For every birthday we decorate the house and blow up balloons. It's an important part of the big day and for days after. SO, being the good mom that I am, I bought several bags of balloons this summer for these special days. On the eve of Ben's 7th birthday party Miriam, Wesley and I began to decorate for his Indiana Jones/Pirate party when we discovered that the only balloons that would hold air were the pink balloons. I don't know if it was bugs, or the damp, or what, but all the other colors were riddled with holes. In spite of the pink ballons, it was still a very manly party. Nerf gun war, treasure hunt, and wii, all while surrounded by beautiful pink balloons.
So my questions are:
"Why the pink balloons? Why were the other colors holey but not the pink?"
"Why are the boys still playing with and fighting over these pink balloons nearly two weeks after the party?"
"Will these balloons ever pop? They seem to be as big and strong as ever!"
"Will my manly little fellow be scarred by an Indiana Jones/Pirate birthday with only pink balloons?"
These questions haunt me...
