Curly's preschool class put on a circus performance this past week. About a month ago we went to the actual Ringling Bros circus with some friends. It was a HUGE hit with the girls. They loved everything about the circus. I loved that it wasn't nearly as smelly as I remember as a kid ;0). Curly chose to be an acrobat in her school performance. Thankfully we already had a little leotard in our dress up clothes at home that would work just fine for an acrobat costume. It was extremely tacky, but with bright colors and sparkles it was perfect for Curly. The Bear insisted she was going to be a butterfly in the circus. I got her a little butterfly headband to wear. Curly practiced and practiced the circus songs as well as her acrobatic balancing acts for her tight rope walk. She was so excited the day of the circus. She told me that we would be served "popcorn and some drink called soda" after the performance. Clearly her teachers aren't originally from the south =0). Curly did an GREAT job. She is a little performer. She absolutely loves being on stage and pleasing her audience. We surprised Curly by having Aunt Debbie in the audience with us. She was driving back to Oklahoma after visiting Tyler in Clemson. She got to the performance right when it began. Curly's face was really cute when she saw Aunt Debbie from the stage. She got really wide eyed and her jaw dropped. It was a great surprise. Afterwards we celebrated by taking Curly to lunch anywhere she wanted. In perfect Curly fashion, she chose Chick-Fil-A.
The Butterfly Bear was memorized by the circus. She loved watching sissy and all her friends perform.
