Thanks Storm and DDW
I LOVE them! I was really anti tattoo for a long time until I started to realize how much beautiful work (art!) is being done -especially here in Hawai'i. I thought for a very long time before getting my first one; what would I be OK having on my body for the rest of my life? Well... my son's name, that is for sure
and plumeria flowers (they say "Hawai'i" for me more than any other) and so... voila! It is a little addicting
I wanted another one SO much after my first one and got the Hibiscus just a few months later. The hand I waited a few years to get and I am SO happy with it. I just had it done this past May and I get SO many compliments! Because of the heat I wear my hair up a lot, so it is visible (but I also like how if I wear my hair down no one can see it) and people comment on it all the time. I am also extremely lucky as a family friend is a very well known tattoo artist and he charges me only a fraction of what it would normally cost.
If I keep adopting kids I will keep getting their names or initials tattooed somewhere
I don't see it being a problem! I want to get the Hawaiian Island chain next... maybe around my other ankle...
So bring on my next baby so I have another name to put with it! LOL
