Adi got her ears pierced!

Yesterday I had to run to the mall to return something and we walked by Claire's and she looked up and said, "I want to get my ears pierced."  I asked her if she meant right now, and she looked at me very matter-of-factly, and said "YES!"  I told her that is something daddy would want to be there for, so we would talk to him when he got home from work.  It was the first thing she asked him when he walked through the door, it was the first thing she asked about when she woke up this morning, and she has continued to talk about it all day.  So, when Bran got home from work we ran out for dinner and stopped by the mall and our big girl did it!  We kept asking her what triggered her desire to get them pierced and she kept saying Ms. Amanda and Ms. Betsy (her teachers) always have such pretty earrings on.  She really loves her teachers!
I must say I admire her ability to know what she wants, and be brave enough to go for it.  I was well into grade school before I go mine pierced (because I was so fearful to get it done).  Adi is such a sweet and brave little girl with a very determined personality.  We pray that she continues to do great things in the world and that she doesn't lose that ability to just go for it!  She is growing up so fast and we are so proud of the wonderful little lady she is becoming. 

Another great thing about this little girl is her amazing rang of emotions when she is excited about something.  The pictures tell it all!

 Oh man, this is going to be so great!

 Is that a gun....

 I'm just going to size up the situation here.

 So excited about this again, this is going to be great!

 It's go time, I'm scared!

 OUCH!

 Still hurting...

 SO worth it!

 She is so excited about having her ears pierced!
