I have 2 pendants that I alternate wearing. The one on the right was a gift. I have 2 bracelets. The one with the jewels was a gift.
The bottom picture is not a tattoo. I draw this on my arm about once a week. I think about getting this as a tattoo sometimes. I also think about something bigger. I really want to get one soon, but I'm still marinating on some ideas.

I have been sucking at posting these each day. I've been having lots of connection and technical issues.
I'm a few days behind but have a picture already taken for this one.
This is my memorial necklace I wear almost daily. A heart charm, garnet birthstone, A initial, and an angel wing. I think some of the ladies were around when I bought this. It was really hard on me because I kept thinking Addison's birth stone would be the same as mine. She had an April EDD so that meant Diamond birthstone, like her mama. Well she was born in January and that's Garnet. It was a stark reminder that Addie wasn't born when she was supposed to be.

It won't let me add another photo to my last post. I'm just adding on a thought on tattoos.
I have also wanted to get a tattoo. I'm not sure how it would come out or what exactly I want. Mostly I want A's footprints. I can't decide a design, location or much of anything else. I know I want them to be actual size like the prints. Do I want her name too? Maybe not. I just can't decided. Obviously I'm not ready for the tattoo but I would like her footprints one day.

That's such a great time to get it!! I love that idea. Maybe on my loss day I will go through with mine. That gives me until January to figure it out. ((Hugs))
What are you doing for your tattoo? Have you decided yet?
PS I love your necklace too. It's lovely.

I really like your necklaces. I love the sweet little birthstone gems on each of them. One for each LO. The saying is very sweet too. I looked at the same charm when I was getting ideas.

I can't make up my mind as far as a tattoo goes, so I doubt that'll happen. However, I do have a "tattoo" that appeared between my navel and heart when I became pregnant with her. The doctor checked it out and said there was nothing to worry about and that patches like this are a common occurrence. I hope it stays near my heart for the rest of my life, as Marianne will. As always, thanks so much for letting me share

ALL WELCOME -
I had a rice keychain with the EDD from my first loss on the rice. While waiting at the RE office to get my CP confirming bloodwork done, I looked down and saw that the glass had broke and the rice was gone. All that was left was the flower. At that point I knew that my second angel had gone away to be with my first.
I didn't want to replace that, it just didn't feel right. I got a new necklace. A dove representing them flying away together with a May birthstone, emerald, since they both were May EDDs.
I also am planning on getting a tattoo, I'm just not so certain as to what yet.
