Last Wednesday, my Mom gave Heather and I tickets to go to the Barnum and Bailey Circus. We weren't quite sure what to make of the Greatest Show on Earth at first - but then as soon as Heather got her nose things relaxed.

This is Katie. She's 9, and apparently just a baby. We were told that she'll eventually weigh 11,000 pounds. My old VW bus weighed 1800lbs. That's unimaginable to me.
