Goodnight Moon...

I have a funny story about the sweet book "Goodnight Moon" that most of us mother's read to our little ones. It is sort of a staple for most babies to have this book. The first page of the book says "In the great green room, there was a telephone and a red balloon, and a picture of..." Well, she was looking through it the other day, (she loves flipping the pages of her books) and started crying every few pages. Confused, I went over to see what the problem was and poor sweet Campbell was having a fit that she could not get ahold of the red ballon in the book. You see every few pages there is a picture of a red balloon with a string hanging down and she was trying her hardest to pinch the string of the red ballon and pull in down. She just could not understand why it wasn't working. It was so sad and I tried to explain to her that it was just a picture of a balloon and not actually a balloon. Of course her 1 year old self could not understand this, so we are going to have to retire that book for a while until we can grasp that concept. It is just not worth seeing her that frustrated over that silly red balloon :) It still makes me laugh though!
