For her 18th birthday, I paid for and took her to have her nose pierced. When she was 20... (I think she was 20) we went and got our "Sister-hood" tattoos! Tonight, we bonded together once again to share our love for our children. My sister and I have been through a lot together. Hard time, good times, the best of times... I believe that our tattoo represent something to us more that people know. I'm glad that I can share this with her and that we have such a tight relationship that we can do these special things together.
I got two footprints to represent my son and the joy he brings to my life. Kate got a beautiful heart with three teardrops falling from it. You see, she is a mother too. She miscarried in July, but her little bundle has stayed and will stay in her heart forever. We can't wait for the day we get to meet this little one in heaven! We were two sister's coming together and celebrating our children with one another! I'm so blessed to have a sister-in-love like that!!!
Ok... enough talking here is the fun picture from tonight!
Kate went first (I was a terrible photographer, I only got a few. But her's was so quick)
Her "pain" face... doesn't she still look gorgouse?!
This is her HEART
Good job Kate!
My turn!!
My pain face...
I love these next two pictures of me. Very natural... I think these were taken during the "breaking." ha!
This is my REAL pain face
Yep... not fun...
But loved how it turned out!
I love my sister... I'm glad I could share this with you!! xox

Love the tattoos! I want another one but can't decide what to get.
You two are sooo brave! I'm a scaredy cat!
I'm so sorry for her loss...I can't imagine what that must be like! What a wonderful way to remember her baby by!
Aw, how cute!! That's wonderful that you two have each other. What a blessing.
agh! So fun!! And so brave!! I made me *yeeeouch* face a couple times! :) And I like what you both got. Very cute. :)
I love both of the tattoos!! You and Katie are MUCH braver than me!
I love your tatoos! They turned out great. I've always wanted to get a footprint tatoo on my foot to remind me of the footprints poem.
I could never get a tattoo! I have to say I do love the baby feet though. (So sorry Katie for your loss.) God will bless her one day. What a great way to remember the little one. :)
What a sweet thing to do together!
So sorry for your s.i.l. loss. It is neat to read how close you two are. You two are much stronger than me...I could never get a tattoo because I am such a whimp :)
Blessings,
Amy
Great tatoos and thanks for sharing the story behind them. Blessings, SusanD

Cute tatts!
You guys got guts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have one on the top of my foot too. Didn't feel too hot! Love yours!
Both of them turned out SO awesome! You are getting tattoos, and I want my removed. But mine is much bigger and not near as pretty as the one you guys got!
That's so sweet. I'm glad you two are able to have such a close relationship!
aw, that's so sweet you two got to experience that together!

So Cute! I'm a Tat Virgin, but if I were to ever get one, it would be on my foot. Love it!
Looks painful, but so much fun! They turned out so cute!
Yep, actually I have three. The one on my foot is the Chinese (or Japanese...not real sure :) ) symbol for faith.
Those are both very cute tatoos. Love the footprints! And I love what the heart/teardrops represent.
The footprints are so cute! Ouch on the foot...you are brave.
Those are amazing tattoos! I was thinking of footprints for my kids, but I got their names tattooed on my ankle instead.
Love them! I have a tat on my foot and I love it! I would so get more, but I dont know where I'd get it
So cute!!!
haha funny pics!!
..and neat tattoos! I love the meanings behind them =)
Love the tattoos...such special meanings!
That is so cool that y'all are so close! Loving y'alls tattoos!
oooh you are brave!! i could never do it, but i have had a million ideas about what to get if i ever had the courage!! very cool that you have such a special relationship :)
How sweet that you have a sister to share those things in life with :)
Very cool idea! I'm working up the courage to get my babies names tattoed on me. :-)
Thanks for commenting on my blog!! That tattoo looks like it hurt!! :) But what a sweet story behind the tats!
How fun!!! How precious of a relationship you two have. Love both of the tattoos!
I love this! I love tattoos that have special meaning and that you got them together is even better!
Awesome!! You are too cute. :)
Wow. Love both the tatoos. It's nice to see to sisters which such a strong bond :)
Those are super cute! The footprints are so sweet. And her heart with the tear drops is amazing! What a wonderful memorial to her baby. I'm so sorry for her loss. I've been there. I know it's hard.
Great pictures! I love your "pain face"! =)
I love it! I have a tattoo on my foot... and I remember that pain!
Love the footprints. Great idea. You got them on the top of your foot and that is where it hurts the most. I have one on my ankle. I have really wanted to get another of a diamond with alex birthdate on it but my husband doesnt think it is a good idea. Diamond because thats her birth stone!
awww! that is mega sweet
both of your tat's turned out great!
very sweet :)
