A VERY HAPPY Girl...

OK... FIRST... I have NO IDEA why the picture won't upload RIGHT SIDE UP... so crink your neck to the side... and I'll tell my little story....



I gave Lilley-Kate the opportunity a bit back to get her ears pierced (I now realize I SHOULD'VE just had them done when she was a baby)... and she has been BACK and FORTH... "Yes Mommy... I want my ears pierced... will it HURT?"... "Um... Yes... it will hurt... but just for a little bit"... "I'll think about it"... "OK... you tell me when you're ready"...



"OK... I'm ready... will it HURT?"... "Um... Yes... it will hurt... but just for a little bit"... "Hmmmm... let me think about it some more"... "OK... you tell me when you're ready"...



BACK AND FORTH... BACK AND FORTH... even an offer from her (much) older brother to ENTER CLAIRE'S and hold her hand hasn't "sealed the deal" for her...



So... we were at the mall... and just went into CLAIRE'S to look at the earrings... and LOOK... CLIP EARRINGS for LITTLE GIRLS!!!! Lilley-Kate was SO EXCITED...



Until she makes up her mind... she is MORE THAN HAPPY to sport "clip ons"


Sparklie CHERRIES... Sparklie BUTTERFLIES... and Sweet DAISIES... (all her favorites)...
One step closer...

How cool is that? I'll have to show those to Anna...she hasn't worked up the courage either. When she asked Jules about the experience J said, "well I cried like a big, fat baby" and that has pretty much sealed the deal for Anna LOL!

LK is looking so grown up!

Oh, that brings back memories! Of the Coro brand "Mini-Clip" earrings of my youth. I had to wait until I was 16 to get my ears pierced. Then 13 year old sis tagged along and got hers done at the same time! Hey, no fair! But I digress. What a smart momma you are -- the clips are a great alternative and those look so cute. We heart Claires, too!
