We lost our precious baby Ginger in September 2013. (That's her in #1). Two days after she was gone, I got her name tattooed on the inside of the right wrist. I wanted to look at her name every single day...I was afraid her memories would fade over time and I would start to forget her, and I couldn't bare the thought of that. I love this tattoo.....and no, her memories did not fade over time.

About a week back I decided it was time to let my body art become a bigger part of my style. I can now talk about Ginger without breaking into tears, and I no longer mind people seeing my tattoo. So I got a wrist band designed on my right hand....my permanent bracelet, since I no longer wear bracelets (I always wanted the tattoo to stay visible).

The wrist band still needs to scab and heal, and then it will be as faded as Ginger's name. Another week I guess.

Looking at this the first thing in the morning makes me smile

Thanks for letting me share. Love you all <muah>
