My first tattoo. Celtic Motherhood/Family Knot. Two dot's represent my children and the center dot represents my husband.
I got it in February 2004
Around july 4th, I was ready to get a tattoo on my inner ankle of
two sagittarius arrows for my children. One blue for my son and one pink for my daughter. In theory, I LOVED the idea. Found
a design I liked and thought would look good. Went to my regular studio and my artist wasn't there, but I had decided and
I wanted it. Went to another studio that was cheaper and he slapped it on. The whole design was off center, the bottom arrow
was crooked, there was no black outline (oh it will look fine he said) and it was so small that it looked like I'd been scratched
by a cat.
I called an hour or so later and he said, come on back I'll fix it.
LIKE HELL I"M GOING BACK TO THAT GUY!
SO I had consulted with my regular artist and it was beyond fixable
without the arrows being too close or too big. So we started the search for a coverup. I found a couple things. I decided
to go along with the idea of a flower with a ladybug because I call my daughter Katie bug and she has ladybugs all over her
room. I finally found the flower, I haven't had the ladybug added. I'm still deciding on placement. I'm thinking on my foot,
maybe a trail of them walking up to the flower. Or just one on my toe or something.
