Earrings
Saturday, July 14th, 2007Our oldest daughter now has earrings.
Good golly.
My wife, the mother-in-law, our daughters and a friend went to what can only be described as a “girls-only” store at the mall; it’s a place where girls can get their hair and make-up done, pretend to be rock stars and they also do ear piercing.
My wife said the young ladies working at the store were awesome and did a great job of helping our daughter pick out a starter set and showing her how to properly care for those new holes in her head.
To avoid possible “oh no, you’re not putting a hole in the other ear” if the first one hurts, both ears were pierced simultaneously. Makes sense to me.
Our oldest came back very excited and proud.
“Dad, it didn’t hurt at all!”
I’m most freaked out because this is a sign that she’s starting to grow into a young lady, caring more about her appearance and all things girl.
Thankfully, boys still have cooties and she can kick most of their backsides on the soccer field.
