We rushed down to my hometown the other Wednesday evening. Nana obtained tickets to the circus for Thursday evening. The last time we went to the circus was before Gorgeous (now 2) was even a thought.
There is nothing like the circus. Where else can really wierd human tricks earn you money? Where else can you race motorcycles around in a metal ball? Where else can you act like a fool and have people laugh with you?
Needless to say the kids had a blast. There was a bit of trepidation on the part of the 4 almost 5 yo. He is not fond of crowds or animals. Even he began cheering on the performers!
I've always loved the circus since the first time my folks carried me. I remember the high wire acts. I remember the pretty girl on the back of the elephant. The lion's roar. I probably still have the big coloring program book. (I can be a pack rat sometimes.) I hope they will retain such fond memories.
