Bye-bye earrings.

Hailey woke up with an infected earring hole today, out of nowhere. It was all red, so I took the earring out & cleaned her ear really good with peroxide. There was brownish blood coming out, I had never seen anything like that. She said it hurt pretty bad, too. So she has decided she doesnt want her ears pierced at all anymore. I took her earrings out, but I think she will regret it & be sad later.

I dont know why I feel so sad. I didnt care for the earrings anyway, she looks too little to have her ears pierced anyway. I was never a fan. But just the fact that SHE made such a big girl decision for herself, and then it backfired on her. THAT makes me so sad. I think she will miss having earrings, and I am going to feel really bad for her. Clip-ons are lame, and I dont think she will like them. She swears she wont care that she doesnt have them pierced anymore, but I think she will. I just feel sad for her. My eyes keep watering up when I try to talk to her about it. I was just so proud of her for making such a big choice, and for it to not work out...I just hate it. I guess thats life though. Its hard to be a mom, and see your babies go through anything though. Im such a wimp...
