Ok, SO....It is Natalie's 4th birthday today! We have been talking for months about getting her ears pierced and she had been SO excited to get it done, until today. She was crying on the way there saying she didnt want them done so I felt like I was being a terrible mom for "forcing"it. BUT on the other hand I knew right when we would turn around to go home, she would say she wanted it done! So I did a little bribery, I said she could get Hello Kitty ear muffs to make her ears feel better after she got them pierced, she was totally excited and really wanted it done after I told her that. :)
So I have a couple of videos that show her in the chair, really excited, picking out the earrings and talking to the people around her and so on. I knew what was going to happen, I KNEW she would cry. She cries if she smells something bad, of course she would cry for something that is painful! So I recorded it and if anyone wants to scare their child into NOT getting it done, then you should show them the video. If you WANT your child to get their ears pierced, dont show them this video. By the way, 2 minutes later, she was totally fine because someone gave her a piece of candy. oh Natters...
