A few weekends ago, Craig and I took Charley to her very first
circus. We have never really taken
her to anything that lasted that long and required her to stay in her seat, so
we were definitely apprehensive on how things would go. Much to our surprise, she was great!!! She sat in awe watching the clowns,
tigers, elephants, the motorcycle on the tightrope, the dirt bike jumps and the
human cannonball. Since she wasn’t
old enough to ask for any of the junk food, we decided to go to J. Alexander’s
for lunch. Unfortunately, we
pushed our luck a little too far, because she was awful! When Craig took her out to calm her
down, the man next to us said, “You need to take that girl to do something
fun!” I said, “We just took her to
the circus…how much more fun can get you get?” After tossing my phone, pushing my plate out of her way and
throwing a fit to get down, she and I skipped most of the meal and went to the
car. Of course, she was great
after that! We will all no better
next time, hopefully!
