and just like that…

I have a tattoo! Georgia and I have matching tattoos!

But first…

I had pizza for lunch with my grandkids. Conversation was rich and delightful. We decided since we have been to this pizza place three times, it is now our place.

Jack dropped Georgia and I off at the tattoo parlor. I was only a tad apprehensive as we entered.

We filled out the requisite paperwork, adding to my apprehension. Our tattoo artist then showed us design options and we selected our design.

Then we walked down the hall to the room where the deed would be done,

and settled in to prepare.

I chose to go first so I couldn’t change my mind.

I then climbed up on the chair and waited for the artist to begin. But first she led us in prayer. It was quite the moment.

I had a little fun.

Georgia held my hand the entire time.

Before I knew it, my tattoo was finished. I joked that it was so quick and easy, I wanted another one.

Then it was Georgia’s turn.

All done!

And just like that, we had matching tattoos.

The best part was how much my granddaughter wanted us to do this. We were filled with glee as we walked outside.
