It was me. I wasn't sobbing or bawling, just choked up - twice. We we took a day trip to Ft. Wayne yesterday. One of our stops was Glenbrook Mall.
The girls wanted to look in Claire's, so we went in. We were about ready to leave when suddenly Makenna asked, "Can I get my ears pierced?" Kristi explained a little more about it, and ten minutes later her ears were pierced. After seeing Makenna hardly flinch, Kylee got hers pierced too.
I was the one who flinched. As soon as I saw the ear rings emblazoning the lobes of each girl, I wanted to rush up and tell them how pretty they looked. But I was too choked up. I couldn't speak, not yet.
Each girl sat so bravely, looked so pretty, growing up so fast, time going by too quickly.

Ha! My big brother all choked up! I totally understand! I got that when when Emma got her ears pierced. I am sure it probably had to do a little with her screaming and trying to get far away from the lady trying to do the other ear-yeah, they did one ear at a time. Glad to hear the girls were so brave. Good grief! They look so old!
We can't wait to see you all. (Ben thinks Indiana Jones lives in Indiana with you guys. That is his new favorite movie!)
