Ruthie, pointing to my nose: “Mommy, what is this?”
“A nose pierce.”
(Pointing to her own nose) “Can I have a nose pierce too, mommy?”
“Yes, someday you can have a nose pierce, when your nose gets bigger.”
“You take me to get my nose pierce at the store?”
“Yes, I’ll take you to get a nose pierce at the store.”
“YAY! I WANT PINK! I WANT A PINK NOSE PIERCE IN MY NOSE!”

Ezekiel 16 —
9 ” ‘I bathed [c] you with water and washed the blood from you and put ointments on you. 10 I clothed you with an embroidered dress and put leather sandals on you. I dressed you in fine linen and covered you with costly garments. 11 I adorned you with jewelry: I put bracelets on your arms and a necklace around your neck, 12 and I put a ring on your nose, earrings on your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.
