Gabriel stole my birthday balloon and wouldn't let go. He carried it around the house for a few days straight. It made him angry that it would float to the ceiling when he let go, even though he could pull it back down with the string. His hand was glued to the stem of the balloon. We had to fight tantrums every time we left the house because he didn't want to leave it. So, when Gabriel went to bed the other night, the balloon got hidden away in my closet. Out of sight is definitely out of mind for Gabriel (unless it's Mommy, of course!).
