Meredith's ears are pierced.

Meredith and I started our day out early. I had fasting labs at 8:00 am with a check-up to follow. I had been anxious to find out if there were any rewards to all the exercise that I'd been doing. The results are in...and things are excellent! Low cholesterol, perfect glucose, great CBC....and I feel great! We left the doctor's office and went to the mall to have Meredith's ear's pierced.
As I sat holding her in my lap, I wondered if I should be doing this....I was going to make her ears hurt. I was so nervous. She was so happy. I questioned the poor lady about her experience, if she had ever made a mess of anyone's ears, etc.. What if Meredith didn't want her ears pierced? I AM tired of her being called a boy wearing bows. I contemplated while the lady was preparing to do this thing, with sweating hands.


And as you can see from the pictures, she has ear-rings. She cried. But, by the time we left the store, there were only the tears that remained on her sweet little cheeks. We were all smiles..... again.
