Mommy I don't want to go to the P-A-R-K (spelled). I want to go to the park!
Mommy, I want my ear's pierced.
Mommy's Reply: You'll have to ask your dad.
Brie: Okay, DADDY! I really want my ear's pierced.
Daddy's reply: How about we get your ears pierced when you turn 5.
Brie: okay, but I really want my ear's pierced.
And my favorite: Mommy, I love You!

Was searching for a GF's blog with similar name and came across yours. Started reading and found your post about your three year asking to have her ears pierced a familar one in our family too.
For whatever reason, she wants to be like mommy wearing "earwigs" or sees her other little friends at the same age with pierced ears, she is hooked on wanting them. Our 2.5 yr who was prissy anyway started asking for them after her cousin at the same age came to visit. She was fascinated with my earrings. She would watch me put them in and ask why she couldn't do the same. She was dissuaded when I told her about having to get them pierced and possible discomfort.
Initially, I told her we would wait till she was 4 or 5, sound familar? That worked for a while until she began taking my earrings and asking me how to put them in her ears! Dh said to take her to have them pierced before she lost one in her canal and we had to go to the ER to have removed.
I asked our ped and she encouraged me at this age saying if mommy cares for them, it was fine at 2-3 yrs old. She gave me some tips for moms having their dd's ears pierced. Write me
if your interested. She did fine, and dh said to have our youngest little girl, age 12 months pierced at the same time so the girls would match. It was not trouble caring for them and both girls look very cute.
Mommie, I think it may be time for your girls too in having their ears pierced.
