Universoul Circus

We went to the circus yesterday. I absolutely LOVE this circus! I'll go to this one instead of Ringling any day, even though it is obviously produced with a way smaller budget. I love to see a bunch of beautiful black families enjoying themselves. I enjoyed the energy in the place and the music.

Going to the circus reminded me of my days at FAMU. Being surrounded by beautiful Black folks who aren't trying to make any trouble; just having a good time.

However, if my daughter ever got on a stage popping it like the little girl yesterday, I would whip her butt. That girl was too much! Yes, we cheered for her, we just got caught up. But, after thinking about it, I was embarrassed for her because seriously that ain't cool. The two other girls were dancing but didn't look like they were ready to be on tour with Beyonce or anything.

Anyway, I had a blast and so did my kids and that's what it's all about.

We saw the Universoul Circus when we lived in Monterey. We had a blast too!

Sounds like you had a great time!

I saw the Universoul circus in Tally a few years ago, and I loved it as well. I was looking for it maybe 2 years ago and couldn't find it.
I'm glad to know it hasn't shut down. Maybe it will come to Tampa

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s...

In Memory...

Staff Sergeant Javares Washington was killed in Kuwait. He was my cousin. My cousin died yesterday...in Kuwait...and I'm so very sad. I feel like I can't breathe. My heart is broken. We grew up like siblings. His mom had him at a very young age. She wasn't ready to take care of him. So, he lived with us for years. He was like my brother. And now, I'm in shock. I'm going to miss him so much. The military has only said he was in a government vehicle on patrol and it flipped over. We don't know what caused the flip or anything. I want to go home. He was married and had two children. His son, Jayden, is 6 years old and looks just like him. His daughter, Tristin, is 9 months old. My heart is broken.

Love at First Sight

I am absolutely in love with this little girl. Danica was born with a heart murmur but we found out today it's no longer there. We are so happy with this little perfect being and can't wait to get to know her more.
