Piercing

Alas! After a month of waiting, our little girl now have earrings. We went to the Health Center, where my mother-in-law (MIL) served as a resident doctor before she retired a couple of years ago, for the ear piercing service. I'm glad I still know how to drive the car =). My MIL see to it that there's nobody in the center so as not to contract virus or disease of some sort from patients.

I was somehow amazed on how the piercing is done nowadays. Very different indeed from the way it was before, during my childhood days where we have this white thread pre-soaked on the reddish merthiolate solution that served as our earrings. We can never have a decent earring at that time because our ears always get infected. This was due to the unsterile equipments used when our ears got pierced. It was only until college that that I wear original gold/silver earrings because they become very itchy everytime I put on a fancy one.



This is how our little 2-month old angel looked like after getting her first earrings =)
