Yesterday I gave myself a permanent reminder to be.
Be present.
Be authentically me.
What started out as a blank slate…
My first visible tattoo.
I love it.
Yes, it hurt but it wasn’t that bad and it only took like 12 minutes. Besides, I had my friend Meghan with me to distract me and photo-document. (Thanks M!) Suzy at Two Birds Tattoo is fantastic. If you’re a Seattle local, check them out!
I’m definitely getting another.



I love it! The font is perfect.
Love the ink and love how happy and excited you look to be getting inked.
yay. your first one. love.
I would be so scared to gt tatted.
Love it – it’s so fitting for you!
I know you already know I love it but I just have to say (it again, yes! and): HECK YES. So proud of you and psyched for you and already looking forward to your next one(s). We should work the timing out so I can come too, and maybe even get one while you do/after you do! Because I verily think I need to be tattooed in Seattle, amen.
Be-autiful!
I love it!
Love it!

I’ve been planning my next tattoo forever now but I don’t have anywhere to go. Still working on that last part.
yay, it looks fantastic! that’s where i have my tattoo as well – i love that it’s subtle, but also always there & visible.
It looks really good!
I hate that I haven’t been commenting, but I’ve been reading, reading, reading along. And I’ve been LOVING that tattoo. Beautiful, and super special. That will ring true for the rest of your days.
That’s very pretty – I like the font you chose
