Today was one of those fun days when you have a little girl that you get to do a totally girl thing. Lia has been working towards getting her ears pierced by having a good attitude every day for six months. Even though we're still halfway through, we decided we'd let her get her ears pierced early. She has done such a fantastic job with school this year and she has been over the top fantastic as a big sister (and big helper for her mom) that we really wanted to show her that working hard without complaining and being kind is behavior that gets rewarded. So we decided to surprise her with this. I took Lia to the mall and didn't tell her what we were going to do. I took her into the shop and her little face just lit up when she realized what was about to happen. She didn't even flinch when they pierced her ears. And she got to pick out some earrings to take home for when she can get her studs out. It was a fun day for me as a mom for sure!!

What a wonderful idea! Way to go Lia with having a good attitude for three months straight. Seriously, I think we'd be such good "mom" friends if we lived close by!
