Klara’s school was doing class photos today, and I purchased her sparkly clip-on ear-rings that she wanted for the occasion. I grew up in a family where putting clear nail polish on my nails at 15 merited me a huge scandal with repeated prophesies that I was going to grow up to be a prostitute. As a result, I welcome any manifestation of my kid’s femininity.
Then she told me that she and her friends had a discussion and decided that to make the earrings really pop, she needed to wear black velvet. The cuteness of a bunch of 7-year-olds discussing black velvet and ear-rings is overwhelming.
Kids are such a joy.
