A dilemma...

What does one do when one very much dislikes loud noises, but is at a birthday party watching all of the other kids having a blast popping balloons?

One tries to pop one with his hands over his ears.

 

And tries...

 

And gets some help and tries again...

 

In the end the balloon won, and we took it home and played plenty of balloon catch with it.

Until tonight. When it popped. And Daniel's ears were not covered.

Oy.
