Mommy/Daughter Date to the Circus

I took Lila to the Circus for a mommy/daughter date. It was a double date with our friends, Holly and Eva. Lila talked about the circus all week leading up to the day we went. She was so thrilled at the idea of going and loved reading the books about the circus we got from the library. She kept asking what animals we would see. I wasn't sure what we would see so I made a few guesses of what I expected for a typical circus. I vaguely remember going to a circus as a kid. I'm actually not certain I even went to one, it could have been a dream, I don't know. Chris and I went to a circus when we lived in Arizona a few years ago. We left early because of how lame it was. I can't remember what made it lame, I only remember that was the reason. Anyway, with my limited experience at the circus, I didn't know what to expect except to have fun with my Lila. The show was AMAZING and everything I imagined a circus to be. I can't even say one thing was my favorite. I don't think there was one part I didn't like. Lila loved it! She loved the whole experience. She was in awe the entire time. I loved watching her watch the show and taking it all in. Lila liked the animals the most. That and going with her friend Eva. They even enjoyed the intermission playing together in the bathroom line. We had a great time to say the least and look forward to going again next year.
