Like Leading a Lamb to SLAUGHTER

Alexus decided she was ready to get her ears pierced. So we talked to daddy and he said we could do it in a few days. The next day we went to Mamaw and Papaw's house, the first person Alexus saw was Aunt Theresa. The first thing out of her mouth was " Hi Theresa, I'm getting my ears pierced today!". Well that was news to me! So like any good mother (who is in total control of her children of course) would do.....I immediately jumped in the car and drove directly to Claire's to fulfill her royal request! She promptly picked the pink flower studs. This is what happened next:

I love her big huge excited smile and then it begins to fade...then question...then worry...then cry. Oh it was so cute and so sad at the same time. She only cried for a second and then wanted to tell EVERYONE she saw that she had her ears pierced. She looked in every THING that showed her reflection to see her ears. She was so happy and thought she was so beautiful with her earrings.
