Charlotte has been wanting to get her ears pierced FOREVER! We didn't want her to do it until we knew she was old enough to take care of them, and we also want to keep her our little baby :) But according to her, EVERYONE already has them pierced. We ended up telling her that maybe for her 9th birthday she could do it, maybe. But then we surprised her and let her do it right before Easter. She was so excited! We went to Claire's at the mall and got the sweetest girl to do it. I told her the one thing I was worried about was having them off centered. She'd mark the spot and ask me to look, but I'm so bad about being able to tell! I'd keep second guessing myself. Then she said she is really OCD about it so to just let her play around with it a while and she would get it just right. She re-marked several times and really took her time. Then she got one of the other girls to come and double check. Finally we said go for it! Charlotte was so still and didn't even flinch! She was so excited and couldn't wait to show them off. Since then, she has done such a great job cleaning them, changing them, and keeping her earrings organized.
