Jenna has worn earrings almost
everyday since collecting them “from grandma” but I think the novelty has worn
off.
There are girls at school who see her
earrings and wish they had earrings too – even if they are the ear-pinching
clip-ons or twists. Parting with her
earrings has not been a big problem – especially when there is one who is
trading her for marbles – well, that’s what Jenna calls them. To me, they look like the shiny rocks that go
into bottles or vases or line the bottom of the fish tank. But Jenna loves them. She sorts them in the same manner that she
has always done with rocks.
Yesterday Roland called to see how we
were both doing. I informed him that
Jenna had gone to school. He asked why
and I told him I thought it was mostly for the earring/marble exchange. He laughed.
Yes, now there’s an important reason to go to school.
