Megan has asked several times about getting her ears pierced. I have always told her that she could do it whenever she thought she was ready. She would say things like, "well, I am not ready yet." "How old were you?" Just different things. She woke up one morning and said, "mom, I am ready to get my ears pierced today." I honestly thought nothing of it because she has said this before and then backed out. She called her dad on the way to school and told him that she was going to get her ears pierced when I got home from work. When I was on my way home, I called Ryan and asked if Megan had said anything about it when he picked her up. He said she told him that I was taking her to get her ears pierced. Okay, this is new; she didn't forget about it. She was so excited when I got home. So, we went and got it done. She picked out her birthstone for her earrings. Then she got up in the chair, held onto the teddy bear the gal gave her. Then it was time for the piercing! The left ear was first. Megan did really well, although I could tell it hurt. She didn't cry until the gal doing it said, "You can cry if you want to, it's okay." Well, then she bawled. At this point I realize I am a horrible parent because I am still recording. I hurry and shut it off and then console her. She was pretty sure she wasn't going to get the other ear done, but she calmed down and we went for it. She was a trooper and is very proud of her ears. She can't wait to change them, however I am not excited about taking these ones out - I am afraid she won't let me put some back in! I am proud of her for going through with it and being so brave.
This is the before shot. 
Right before...
After (and calmed down)
Finished!
The after shot!
