Watching the kids in this business grow up hasn't bothered me, watching their kids grow up makes me feel ancient!

Shane,Shannon,Dalilah were very healthy nice children who were often playing about the back lot with a glow if enchantement. When they were in " Circus Wardrobe " in behalf of Barbaras educational cultivation they became serious, prim & proper professional entertainers.This era brings on great memories & you have a " LIFETIME " of them ! ! !

Karen, I know what you mean about townies not believeing circus stories. I am such a proper priss that I am often taken for a school teacher. When they bring their pets to me, they are amazed at how well behaved they are when they pick them up. Someone said I use tuff love. In 15 years I have never had a problem working with animals here. And I do it alone. So many things I learned while on the circus has been used here. Storage, feeding, exercise, brushing. I can handle 60 pets in a day. Not day after day, but when the holidays come around and I have a full house. Love every minute of it. Little kids have me for show and tell at school. Nurseing homes love the old circus stories when I take pets for visits.
