My DH and I finally decided that for Shelby's 12th birthday, we would give her a gift certificate to get her ears pierced. (Shelby has been requesting since the age of 8). We attempted to get them done a couple days after her birthday; however her fears gave in and she decided she didn't want them done.
Well after about 5 months, this Sunday she decided she had the courage to go through with it. While we were out running errands, she asked if we could stop by Claire's do have it done. I told her yes; however she was going to do it this time. Well, she won over her fears of the pain and got her ears pierced.
Now Shannon is wanting to get her ears done. We have 4 years of listening to her pleas to have her ears done. Why can't parenting be simple?

I am so glad Shelby faced her fears and my heart aches for Shannon and you as it will be a long 4 years! Don't you remember when we got our done? Shawna and Mom got there done very shortly after!
Kudos to Shelby for conquering her fear! Now, she'll want to shop at Claire's all the time:)
