I did it!

I have been saying for about a year and a half that I really want to get my nose pierced. Well, today I finally did it. (You have to look closely in the picture, it's on my right side). It didn't even really hurt at all. The best part of this whole thing is what pushed me to finally do it. In our family at Christmas, after we open our presents, my parents give us each a gift that is special, something with a lot of meaning. This year, when it was my turn and I opened a box, there was $40.00 and a business card from Chrome Lotus Tattoo shop. My parents tried to get me a gift certificate but they had run out. So they gave me cash instead so I could go get my nose pierced. They are awesome. But more than that, what they really gave me what their unconditional love and support. It meant so much to me that they thought enough about what I have been wanting and got it for me. So today, after lunch, we just decided to go get it done. I was super nervous but I did it!

Thanks mom and dad for loving me for who I am. You are pretty much the best.
