✨ New Tattoo Appreciation ✨

Finally put the idea to fruition! For years, I have been wanting to have my mother’s and father’s handwritten I LOVE YOU permanently engraved into my skin. Two and a half weeks ago, I put the sketch together with help from my one of my closest friends, and made it happen.

Originally, the idea was to simply put their handwriting on my arm, but then I decided to add in the sunflower. The sunflower represents strength, the ability to persevere in harsh environments and remain standing tall despite challenges thrown at them 🌻

Whenever I’m struggling, I can look down at my arm and remind myself of the two people who supported me throughout my worst. The journey isn’t over yet, but it gets easier every day.
