The Big 1.0.

She's 10. 10!!!!! I cant quite believe it. 10 is *alot* older than 9.... she will always now be in double figures. She has wanted to have her ears pierced for a long time, and I thought that being *so* old was the right sort of time to have them done.

Small had built this up to a really big thing. We got there, chose really small silver studs and she held my hands really tight as they shot them through her ears. Then she cried! ... not for long, but she went really red and her eyes shut tight and then tears appeared.

On the day her Dad and sister came for tea which was lovely. Her sister is 3 and watching her I am reminded of Small in so many ways. We all ate loads, played loudly and sang and talked and it was just as Small wanted it to be.

Happy Big Birthday My Darling.
