Return

Today I was able to return to one of my fave things on the planet.

Eight months ago after meticulously planning and scheduling a few schools….I had to cancel every single appointment and I was very angry….

Since that day every single cancer surgery…treatment…this was one of the goals…to get back to Red Nose Readers.

After the three groups of kiddos today I came home and did some household chores and then collapsed on my couch and took a 30 minute nap. ….but I would change nothing…I wouldn’t take one less kid…I wouldn’t take one less class….I would not change a thing. Listening to them laugh was medicine…and my favorite kind.

Children will be honest with you…if they don’t like your program they will tell you…if they don’t like your costume they will tell you.

But thankfully, I was their jam today…and they want me to come back…and that is always the goal.

I will never be the most skilled and talented clown you have ever seen….but I will keep trying….and I will keep fighting.

Some days I feel we have lost this next generation….but other days I see….they just want to be loved…they just need to laugh…and as long as I am breathing….I will make it my life goal…to do just that!!!

And cancer….you didn’t win!!!!
