My gift to Janae was a pair of earrings. When she opened them up, she looked at them and then at me and said in a disgusted voice, "I can't wear these. I don't have my ears pierced!" To which I replied, "Well then I guess we'll have to get your ears pierced." It took a second for that to sink in, and when it did she was excited. We went to the mall on Saturday morning to have it done. She picked out the earrings she wanted quickly and hopped up into the chair. I was a little afraid that we might be leaving with only one pierced ear that day. (Claire's apparently has a policy that parents can't force kids to have a piercing done, even if that means leaving with only one earring.) The girl pierced one ear and all Janae said was "OUCH". She turned her head and let the second ear be done also, no tears. She was so brave! Now she can't wait for November 7th to get here so that she can take them out and wear one of the many new pairs of earring she got as gifts.
