Another Rite of Passage...

The little girl has been gradually, and now suddenly, becoming a Tween. Even though Camryn is only 11 1/2, she seems so grown up now with her new hair cut, her 'new' height (5'3") and eagerness to start middle school next fall.

We decided (John, Cam and I) a few years ago that she would have to wait to pierce her ears until she was finished with elementary school and on her way to middle school. Well, school was out last Thursday at noon and waiting until Saturday afternoon was just agonizing.

So, off we (Mom-Dot) went to the 'big' mall and to Claire's for the latest event in a summer that is bound to be full of becoming a Tween. Camryn was really brave and didn't flinch a bit!

Now her sparkly ears match her very sparkly personality! She is still just so excited about this big event! See for yourself...
