Last weekend we took Jack to Circus Chimera, a small one ring circus that seemed a good fit for an introduction to the world of crazy body contortions and freakishness that are under the big top. The first half went well and Jack was emboldened by the $10 scepter we bought him that lights up (and that only costs $.50 to make). We spent out intermission on the train ride outside and then went back in to the tent for the second half beginning with clowns coming out and playing brass horns during their funny act. In the middle of their act, one of the clowns comes to the front and begins playing Kenny G on his horn. Jack, previously happy and interested, suddenly gets his big lip indicating impending bawling and begins to cry. Nothing we could do would make him stop so we finally decided that half of the circus was enough and headed home.
Is anyone really surprised that Kenny G was the showstopper?
