Big Day for Katie

Our almost 4 year old going on 17 had a big day on Saturday.  She looked at Lisa and me and said "Let's go get my ears pierced".  Now those word also came out of her mouth a couple of weeks ago as well only to tell us "not today".  Since we were looking for something to do anyway, we headed out to the mall and no backing out this time.  Katelyn was so rock solid, no tears were shed (not even a sign of a watery eye).  Lisa, well that was another story.

Picture a crowd of about 12 or so gathering around to watch this tiny 3, almost 4, year old getting her ears pierced.  I'm sure it's some kind of sickness that all these people wanted to see a little girl cry her head off but nothing.  Then all of a sudden we hear someone in the crowd say she's not crying but look at her momma!  Yep, Lisa was wiping a tear away when I turned to look at her.


Waiting patiently

Marking her ears
The big moment

No tears!
