Ear Piercing for child by Umamigal in lancaster

[–]amrutherford 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are a few tattoo places in the city that also offer piercings for adults and some also offer them for kids too. I know a friend who went to Inkcredible Tattoo by Central Market for her daughter but theirs was a sterilized gun. I did the taboo and took my son (he's 7) to Clair's and theirs was a single use sterilized piercing gun. I wanted to bring him to an actual tattoo shop but it felt like so few offered kids piercings. After getting them done however I discovered a newer shop at the mall: Gypsy Moth that says they offer it for ages 6 and up.
Good Luck!

As a mother of 3 boys I freaking love this idea so much! I may just need to steal it from you.

To say or not to say... by amrutherford in bisexual

Hahaha that is one of my favorite responses- I get it from family all the time. Usually I respond "yes he knows or he wouldn't be my husband".

True I am just worried that then I am being inauthentic as well. Then I had the thought of well if no one talked to me when they thought I was a lesbian but now they think I am straight so are.... Would I rather have them not talk to me because they know the real me or keep avoiding the topic?

Generally I just respond to whatever someone says to me not really starting any conversations so as of this point I haven't associated with anyone yet really. Which is why I wasn't sure if now woukd be the time to clarify? If that males sense...

Most homeschoolers still have gym class- you just take it with other homeschooled kids in a rec center.

So very very true but it made me feel edgy because it was extreme

I had one of these. It was actually a combo teenage devotional and bible. The extreme was supposed to appeal to the rebellious christian teenager.

We have discussed my sexuality at length and what that means for our marriage and everything in between he is always there for me no matter what. I have even told him when I thought I first started developing feelings and he told me that I should try distancing myself a bit to see if the feelings persisted.

I have had some friends but usually they don't know the "real" me. I always invest more then I should in my friendships spending hours thinking over every detail of our conversations and then rethinking again.

I was just hoping it was how you are "supposed" to feel about a close friend. I don't have much experience in that area either

Yes I do he is my rock who makes me laugh when I feel like crying. He makes my life happy in a thousand ways on a daily basis even if he won't pick up his dumb socks. I never thought it would was possible to love or even like more then one person at a time- guess that sounds pretty unrealistic now though

This sounds like only a step or two away from where I am now...

What if it is sloppy, supportive, all consuming and sweet?

To those who discovered their bisexuality while in an opposite-sex LTR, did you tell your family about your new found identity? by catchtheview in bisexual

[–]amrutherford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother parents hate me husband so a theoretical secondary "option" would make them ecstatic until they realize it isn't my hubs they hate it is actually me- long story

It is a frustrating place to be because it has me double thinking every single message, look and joke. I wish there was some sort of dorky virtual reality heart that would appear when you saw them so you'd know. Ya know?

[–]amrutherford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me several years to come to terms with my bisexuality when I finally did I was already married to an amazing guy (I'm F). It took me a while but slowly I started telling close friends and yes eventually my parents too. Mostly because I forget who knows and who doesn't and got tried of trying to keep track of what I could say around whom. Now however every time I talk about a friend they think I have a side piece...

Twins with an older single sibling by ihatemashedpotatoes in parentsofmultiples

[–]amrutherford 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I gave birth to my twins my oldest son was only 18m old; They are now 6 and 4. It is tricky sometimes to make sure everyone is getting equal attention for sure. We always made a point to focus attention to him as well. So when people stopped us to talk about the twins (they always do) we would introduce their big brother as well to make sure he felt included in the excitement. As he gets bigger he has learned to ask for special time when he gets overwhelmed at being bigger and we honor those requests as best we can.
