Balloons!

Hello everyone! It's Alya here. I haven't posted for a while because I was so busy cherishing whatever is left of summer..

Speaking of summer, don't balloons remind you of this season? Balloons remind me of many things. I love looking at them. They take me back to the days of my youth, where innocence and color prevailed. And where simple things like helium-filled rubber balls would put a smile on my face.

I took these photos at a flea market some months ago. I keep returning to them because they look so pretty. Don't you think?

I have a renewed love for balloons ever since my 18 month old fell in love with them! Seriously, every day is like "The Red Balloon" movie in our house!
