Guess Who Got Her Ears Pierced?
Auntie Little Bear is in charge of this rite of passage for all the girls in the family. Isabella spent two days in Orange County last week so -- zingo!
Quite a few years ago, when the internet was new, and Plotnik didn't know any better yet, he saw an advertisement from his employer AOL that read: "FABULOUS BUY! DIAMOND EAR RINGS FOR YOUR SWEETHEART! NEVER AGAIN PRICE! ACT NOW! HURRY! C'MON! WHAT, YOU DON'T TRUST US? PSHAW! HURRY!
OK, he was new at this, everybody was. So be paid, like, $9.95 or maybe it was $29.95, for never-again fabulous diamond ear rings for his sweetheart.
Ducknik was nice about it. They were probably beautiful, but they were so small she couldn't really pick them up. Plotnik would estimate .00000001 carat, or .00000002 for both. These glorious dust-sized specks of sparkly stuff sat unworn for many years (SEE ABOVE PHOTO), until now! We know where they're going tomorrow when Belly and The Great PD arrive for a short visit on their way home from Stiletto.
So you see? They were for Plotnik's sweetheart after all, and the Good Ducknik, who never ribbed Plottie about his astonishing gullibility, will have found them a nice home.
Plotnik figures if a smaller ear wears the same diamond, the diamond is larger, right?

I wouldn't let Diane get Danni's ears pierced until she was old enough to say she was OK with the mutilation. Once she was old enough, her first answer was an emphatic no. I don't remember how old she was when she finally had them done, and I don't want to know how many things are pierced now.
Small diamonds are huge in a little girl's ear - you were SO wise back then. (Still are, except maybe when it comes to Lamar.)
Auntie Paula got my ears pierced! :)
what a perfect princess present!
