she asked one night pointing to the bone in her ankle...it's a bone I answered
"do you have one" she wondered "yes" I said and pulled up my pant leg so she could see it
"well what is this?" she asked pointing to my tattoo "a star" I answered
"can I have one too?" she asked "sure" I said and pulled out the ink pen
so not the momma I was 20 years ago....then I would have frowned on tattoo's
but that little dare when I turned 44 which resulted in that star tattoo on my ankle
(the dare was with myself it seemed time to do something so out of the box for this girl)
I imagine now saying no would have rung a bit hypocritical would it not, especially when I now sport one. Of course we won't be making an appointment at the local tattoo parlor for that 3 year old or the 7 year old for that matter. That kind of permancy can wait until they are much older.
Rosie walked by as we finished up Reyna's star and said "cool can i have one too!" "well hop up here"
I said "let's give you one too"
