Traumatized!

Everyday for 2 weeks Taylor asked me if she could get her ears pierced just like her best friend Paige. Saturday was "the big day." She was excited, a little nervous but was definitly not going to turn back.A second after this picture was taken I think she wished she had made a different choice. I will never forget her face when those earnings were poked through. It was so sad. Tears followed for the next 20 minutes and Little Miss Ashlyn adamantly declared that she had changed her mind and no longer wanted her ears pierced (Totally okay with us!!!).

We are on day 4 of having earnings and I think she has finally forgiven those ladies with the piercing guns and has adjusted to ears with holes in them. I was little nervous we were going to have to take them out after the tenth time she cried, "I don't like those ladies and I told you I wanted to wait until I was 7!" (Ummm no you didn't)

For some reason the earnings make her look and seem a lot older.
She is just growing up way too fast!

Oh My! I am so surprised!!! What a big girl she is, I am glad I wasn't there, and can hear Ashlyn's response to all of that! Can't wait to see her pretty earrings.

I suggest you don't let her date until she is 21... or 22 & 1/2... after a mission. This is one pretty little girl.

Wow- she is getting big. Be careful around Claires now...Makayla STILL doesn't like watching other girls get their ears pierced!

They look sooo cute! That was really brave of her! I did my daughters at 2 months so I wouldn't have to deal with the sadness! She looks beautiful!
