Its Circus time

My boys have seen the signs & so it seems we're going to the Circus again this year.  In the past, Nana was always the one who lead the Circus extravaganzas.  Don't get me wrong, I like the circus but, I wouldn't have taken my guys every year if it we're for my mom.  She delighted in seeing the boy's laugh & giggle & stare in awe at the circus performers.  She loved to buy them cotton candy & watch them get all sugared up.  It was a big deal for them & their Nana.  So, this year I have been torn.  Its the first year of doing these things without my mom present.  I really thought I might prefer to skip it.  That was before the boys caught sight of the sign.  Now I keep hearing "Mom! We have to go!  We always went with Nana."  So, we're going.  I think I can suck it up & enjoy myself.  Nana would really want the boys to keep up these traditions she started with them.  I know she'll be watching from above & making sure I buy them that cotton candy!!

That picture! They are so small! Glad you decided to go anyway and I hope, as the boys slipped into a sugar-induced craze, you could think of your mom and smile. Love you, Tam!
