The Balloon Game

We arrived at the parade site about an hour and a half early to snag a good seat, and fortunately there were a lot of things going on to keep Calder entertained. People were handing out free balloons left and right, and Calder quickly devised his own little balloon game.
He would insist on having full control of the balloon, and then he would suddenly release it, in a test of Daddy's quick reflexes! (Nice action shot, huh?)

Calder lost two balloons this way, but he wasn't upset. He would watch the balloon go up and up and wave bye-bye to it.
At one point, a little girl (about 4 years old) saw him lose his balloon, and very sweetly came over to give him one of hers. Then she asked if he had a girlfriend! :) (Later, I made sure he knew that Mommy is his girlfriend!)
