Ear Piercing

The Mall...Its one of those places that I enjoy going to, esp in the winter when its so cold and dull outside. As Dad Mom drive me on the stroller, I stare at the crowd, the shops, the lights.
Yesterday was a usual weekend evening at the Natick mall. We entered a store which had jewellery, ornaments and lots of fascinating stuff. Even before I was done looking around Mamma made me sit on a chair.

One moment I was on Mom's lap playing and enjoying and the very next moment I got the same pricking that I sometimes get @ my doctor's office. This time in my ear though. But I think I did pretty good. I cried just a little (OK probably a bit more than little) when Mamma held me firmly against her for the piercer to do her job.

But offering a candy for doing a good job and some recitals of my favorite rhymes, made everything better right away. 

Even though it was a real bummer at that point, I now think it was all worth it. Isn't it?

I'm all set to go to my school today and show my teacher and friends my new ear ring :)
