Several months ago we started a kindness jar with Avery. Every time she
did something kind or helpful without being asked, she earned a marble.
It also worked the opposite way...there were many times she lost marbles
too :) We told her that when she filled up her jar, we would take her
to get her ears pierced. For a couple of weeks we all sort of forgot
about the jar and it didn't get filled much. Oops! After getting back on
track with it, she had it full in no time! She couldn't wait to get
those ears pierced! The first weekend of summer we were meeting my mom
in Tyler to pick up Maitland, so we decided to do it there. I tried to
explain how they had to put tiny holes in her ear without scaring her,
but she seemed just fine with it and had no anxiety. When we
arrived at Claire's she hopped up in the chair and was ready! She barely
flinched when they put the holes in. We haven't had any problems with
them so far, and she can't wait to pick out a new pair to wear. I need
her to stop growing so fast!
All done!
Awesome idea! Girls are so fun :)
