Sue and Liam came home one day after a party. They spread joy and smiles and the kids played with them for ages.
After a while, they started feeling deflated, as if the air was going out of them, so they rested gently on a chair. When you came into the room, you couldn’t help but smile when you saw them. Finally, they were nothing but empty plastic bags.
We bid them a fond farewell. RIP Sue and Liam!

I always dread the day that Emma’s balloons deflate. She cries when she finds out that I threw them away.

What do we learn from this?
That if you smile too much you will only feel deflated? Hmm.
Graninge is… not too far from Sollefteå and Långsele. I’ll be staying at my mum’s house because Härnösand is about an hour away by car and I’m going to be there two days in a row.
