How Loud Can You Play Your Trumpet?

Saturday I was practicing my trumpet while watching Maddie & Riley.  I was trying to play quietly so I didn't hurt their ears.  At one point, Riley asked, "Can you play louder than that?"  I said I could, then he wanted me to do it, so I did.  He then again asked, "Can you play louder than that?"  Of course I could and did.  One more time he asked, "Can you play louder than THAT?"  So this time I turned away from him (and Maddie), took a deep breath and played as loud as I could.

When I turned around Maddie's eyes were huge, Riley had his hands over his ears, a big grin on his face, and he said, "Daddy, that was TOO loud!"
