I think I need to stop the sorting for now, she isn't getting the concept and runs away with the objects. I will try to get her to match pictures to objects instead.

Spent the evening at mall - went to buy yet another set of earrings for D. Why did I think getting her ears pierced was a good idea? One piercing closed a long time ago and she is now rocking the single earring trend.

 

She keeps pulling on them constantly and they eventually come out.
Earlier we had to get the kind with long posts that snap to close because the ear did not heal completely with all the pulling and needed cleaning twice a day.
This time her ear is healed completely and we got screw back earrings. Planning to clean every other day but now I am not sure how to to do it without removing the earring because there isn't much of a gap.

How often do we need to clean with the liquid solution after the ears healed?
My daughter was very guarded when we apply this solution to her ear. She doesn't like anyone paying close attention to her like that, probably thinks of injections, blood draws, etc. We tried to make it as pleasant as possible, singing to her and swinging her, and she lets us do it but always has a semi worried expression. And unfortunately, she is fixated on the ears and keep pulling on them and it bleeds. I distract her when I am around but can't be with her 24/7. It took more than a month to heal. The earrings were the smallest I found in the store but not micro ball, I will get that kind if she pulls these off.
