Adelaide has been talking about getting her ears pierced for the last couple of months. She reminded me on Saturday that what she really wanted for her birthday was to get her ears pierced. After Aaron drug his feet and asked her many times if she was sure and then made a big deal about looking at her pretty ears without earrings before we left, we made it out the door and to the Treasure Coast Mall with Jammy Lamby and Blankie in tow.
She never wavered in her conviction to go through with it, however she did get a bit nervous while we were waiting for helper #2 to check out other costumers. You can see how she was squeezing her arm... I thought she would leave a bruise!
She didn't cry initially and had it not been for the 9 or 10 year olds in the back ground that said "She didn't even cry.", she may have toughed her way through it. 
She shows everyone her earrings and tells them "I only cried a little, then I stopped.", which is very accurate. She cried for less than 15 seconds and in those 15 short seconds 4 big tears managed to roll their way down her cheeks. She wiped them off and said "I wanna see them!"
