balancing act

z7

~ A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your step as you walk the tightrope of life. ~
William Arthur Ward


z beam
Day 5 of the circus brings a tightrope of sorts... an impromptu balance beam. A place to find inner quiet, courage... to build confidence and coordination... to be silly and dramatic!

All you need:
- 2x4 between 8 and 10 feet long
- two sturdy chairs
- parasols and pretty skirts are optional


Words to live by: Get up on that tightrope. Don't look down. Find your balance. Know when to hold someone's hand... and when to let go.

    The parasols are part of my mother's collection. I'm working on a full post of resources coming soon.
