Cheered by a Balloon

Nobody can be uncheered by a balloon.
~ Winnie the Pooh

If anyone is a cynic, they must spend a day watching a baby and they will be cured. The abundant and spontaneous joy of a toddler at the mere sight of a balloon is worth a thousand self-help books on how to be happy. Sam has the capacity to be surprised and filled to the brim with wonder until his face glows and his eyes look like puddles filled with the sun.
