Well, she did it. And we let her.
That ONE AND ONLY new hole in her head.
Ranae now has pierced ears.
Boy was her experience different than mine.
Mine went something like this:
My mom had a friend who was a nurse.
After dark we went to her house.
Then to numb the pain, they held ice cubes to my ears...
...for what seemed like hours.
And then the nurse slowly pushed a pointed earring through my ear.
Emphasis on SLOWLY.
And my right ear was a little difficult and she had to twist it.
Left and right, left and right, pushing, pushing...
...well, you get the point.

Ranae's went something like this:
Point earring "gun" at pre-marked point on ear.
Count to three and shoot.
Repeat other side.
Done.
Yeah!
