finally...

...after wanting it for over a year (and being forbidden to by A), last week I got my tattoo.

It's not a very good photo as it was hard to get the angle right, but just above my inside right ankle is this:

It's my own design; one petal each for Starchild, Bean and my Little Stars.

    Ooh, I like it! It's beautiful.
    Can I ask though, why did A forbid you to do it, and did it hurt? I've been thinking about getting a tattoo for a while, (and no, not of my husband's face as he keeps suggesting...) but am not sure what to get or where to get it...

    It's beautiful, Illanare. Both the design and the meaning behind it.

    (I'm a little horrified that he forbid you from doing it. But that's a rant for another day.)

    One day I will get a tattoo for my snowflake. But so far I've not been able to settle on a design. There's no rush, I guess.....

    It is amazing especially since you designed it and the meaning behind it as well.

    Makes me sad that you have wanted this and didn't do it because of A, but I am so so happy that you have gone ahead...you go girl and remember you are your own woman now.

    Big hugs!

    This is so, so lovely! I love that you designed it, and I love that you did it. Bravo!!

    I have to apologize for being such a bad blog friend. I've been lost in my own little world and came back to find such huge changes and sad milestones in your world. I'm sending belated, but very sincere (((HUGS))) your way.

    You are a strong, lovely, kind, gentle, generous, sensitive person. I'm so sorry you have had so much sadness and awfulness in your life, and I hope peace finds you - along with a happiness you've only ever dreamed of.

    Thinking of you.

    I love it. Love the tattoo, love the symbolism, love the giant F-YOU that I hope the universe is sending to A. right now.

    Sending you big, giant, squishy internet hugs.

    Good for you! While I understand your desire not to upset A, I have the feeling that this was also very important for you, and I am glad that you are giving yourself this gift.
