Meet the Circus Family.  Here's an Etsy Treasury that honors the Circus Family.

 

'Circus Family' by gardenofsimples

My family and I went to England together several years ago.  Someone asked us if we were a Circus Family.  We still call ourselves that.

We visited England several years ago as a family.  All four of us were in a pub one afternnoon.  Hannah and I were taking turns at the piano, Eva was dancing the Highland Fling, and Kurt was enjoying a pint.  Someone asked us if we were a Circus Family.  We never forgot it.  We still call ourselves by that name.
