So I've had this vague idea of getting a tattoo since I was about 17. When my dog got sick before she died I came up with this idea of the Irish/Celtic symbol the triquetra with her name underneath. And when I lost my baby girl last year the idea became more and more concrete and I've just been waiting to have the money for it. Last week I got my financial aid refund from my school and besides buying my MacBook, I'm using it to get my tattoo. I've been posting about my ink on my FB and Instagram and one of my friends moms, who is also a friend, messaged me tonight expressing her concern about me getting my tattoo. She's kinda old fashioned, a total southern belle, very Christian, but she's super sweet. She told me that she was feeling burdened about me getting my tattoo, that she was worried I needed to spend more time thinking about it, that I had such beautiful, fair skin and she didn't like the thought of someone putting ink on such beautiful, fair skin as mine. She also said she hoped I wasn't offended and she wasn't trying to be judgmental, she was just genuinely concerned. I thought it was so sweet! However this tattoo is very important to me to get in memory of my sweet beautiful baby girl! It's happening tomorrow, it's going on my left foot, I will not regret it and it will be a fantastic memorial for my beautiful baby girl Faith!!
My design that I drew out myself!
My beautiful baby girl Faith who the tattoo will be in memory of!
