    My kids are in the drawing and cutting stage too!

    Except I quit waiting for darkness after I stepped on a piece of paper and almost did a split.

    I picked up some half used tablets for free at a yard sale so I don't feel guilty that they only colored on 1/2 half of 1 side and then were done with it.

  5. Wow. I feel for you. I have to say, I went to the circus a few years ago. Oddly enough, the lifestyle looked a little appealing to me. Don't get me wrong, the cat lady wrangler is sort of strange, but she had so much plastic surgery to her face and chesticles. I thought, if a circus performer can do that on their wages, then I am in the wrong profession. (I'm a carnival worker)
