Growing Pains
posted in Frenzied Daddy |
The DQ was thrilled to get a Gift Certificate for ear piercing for Christmas.
Originally we wanted to wait until our girls were 13. We don’t believe in piercing our baby’s ears, and think it’s more appropriate as a sign of growing up. However, she is growing up; next month she’ll be eleven, and her body’s pressing ahead with the changes we all know and dread.
Her mother and I picked out the birthstone earrings when we were getting the certificate; it’s funny that she picked them out too ( the birthstone earrings ). The chart all three of us looked at had her birthstone as garnets.
After Grandma bought us lunch at Billy Heartbeat’s, the DQ proclaimed that she had her ears pierced and her belly was full, so today was, by fiat, a good day.
