My daughter had her ears pierced yesterday with her grandma, Dede in Texas. She’s six and a half going for 13. My husband and I gave ear piercing a gift for being good and finishing her year of kindergarten because she had wished to have her ears pierced since she turned 4. I have mixed feelings for her looking more mature than her age.
長女が、テキサスのおばあちゃん、ディーディー(アメリカはおばあちゃんと呼ばず、あだ名で呼ぶ事が多い)と一緒に、耳にピアスの穴を開けに行きました。6歳半だけど、13歳のような娘。夫と私は、娘が良い子で居た事、そしてキンダー(幼稚園の年長ですが、アメリカでは義務教育の最初の年)を終わらせたご褒美に、4歳頃から欲しがった耳のピアスをさせて上げました。大人っぽく見える娘を見て、とても複雑な気持ちです。

She looks like a very adorable young lady (and very happy too!)
There’s no stopping them growing up Kaho! The minute my daughter turned 18, she went out and got her belly button pierced! It never ends……

Thanks, SEO!! Belly botton! I’ve got my nose pierced about 7.5 years ago and I remember when I went home to visit my dad, my dad went “what is that little thing on your nose…?” I won’t be able to say anything when my girls come home with other holes. I hope they’ll wait till they are independent. 🙂

I like that! 🙂 I would want my girl to do the same, but I don’t know how my hubby will react to it!!! hahaha…
Kaho says
Just do it!! Just kidding. It’s one of those thing both parents should agree, I think.

Beautiful! (Im my culture, girls have their ears pierces around 6 months. I don’t ever remember NOT wearing earrings!)
Kaho says
You’re right. Lucky you!

In my family we have our ears pierced early to! I don’t remember not having earrings just like Notabilia. I think I will follow our tradition, just because I like not having any memory of the pain =P But I can see why parents don’t like having their daughters ears pierced early too! Your daughter is a beautiful young girl!
