Headless Dora

Peri had a lifesize Dora balloon for her birthday party this past July. It had weights on the feet to keep it grounded. That sucker stayed inflated for weeks! Until one morning Peri got downstairs before everyone else and let out a bloodcurdling yell. I rushed down to find her pointing at a headless Dora balloon standing four feet high. Seems the head came unattached during the night and had floated to the ceiling. A few lame tries by be on the ottoman were scratched. I finally had the bright idea to use Nick's "grabber" - those things that you pull a lever and it pinches the hands together to pick up stuff/pinch your sister - and was able to get it.

Phew - glad it was just Dora!
