palamaro diaries: greatest show on earth!

Our amazing friends, Todd & Timi, were so generous and got us a sweet deal on some circus tickets. We were really excited… a lot for ourselves, but mostly for Amelie! We went with our friends, Ginny and Bob and their 3 kiddos and had GREAT seats. Turns out, Amie could care less about the circus.

The first 10 minutes of the show she would look at the all the action and then look back at me with the most worried look on her face, like, "help me, mama!," but after she realized we were no, in fact, in harms way, she seemed to kind of enjoy the show a little. Every now and then she would look at a lion or an elephant and point and say something, but the rest of the time she spent trying to talk to Rush (one of our friend's kids) and just going back and forth between our laps… she really got a kick out of that. At intermission, Ant went to get some cotton candy. I was so excited cause I just KNEW she was gonna love it. Ha! She was actually quite terrified of the cotton candy. We would hold it up to her mouth and she would brush it away and turn her head in fear. Then she just got a kick out of feeding it to us… so we ate a lot of cotton candy. I was actually pretty ok with that :)
