Ry got her ears pierced! She'd been talking about it for a while and so we bit the bullet and took her. Not sure she knew what she was getting in to. You can see here she was a little nervous. Sawyer thought it was awesome.
Please don't judge. She actually really wanted to do it. After it was over, an older woman walked by and gave me a death look...as if piercing a 4yr old's ears is the first step in her working the pole. Ear piercing is apparently the new gateway drug. Today pierced ears, tomorrow she'll be drinking 40s out of a paper bag and ditching preschool. Come on people. They're just earrings.
When all was said and done, she stopped crying after I gave her a mirror and she saw the results. She spent the rest of the day in the bathroom staring at her new accessories. Hopefully, this will hold her off on the belly button and tongue. Not sure how I'm going to explain that one to the kids.
And then there's this...16 weeks and counting.
That's why you take them to a place like Westminster Mall. Not a soul looked funny at us because the Asians and Hispanics think its normal to pierce them when they are infants!
ReplyDeleteI cried big fat scared tears when I got my ears pierced and I was seven. Your posts make me laugh out loud. Keep them up.
