New career: Tattoo Artist

A long time ago when our granddaughters were fairly young, we were visiting at their house for a few weeks. I had my colour fountain pen along and one sunny day as we were sitting outside, I drew a tiny heart on my hand.

Well the girls saw that and they all wanted their own little hearts. So I gave them a heart and a flower and a little happy face. They were quite pleased.

Next year we were there they remembered and wanted Papa to draw them a new tattoo. A bit more complex this time. Well I did the best that I could but I was reaching the limits of my artistic ability.

Then a couple of months ago when Lauralea and I were out shopping, we came across this package and I thought oh jackpot. If I can’t dazzle them with my artwork, I could at least dazzle them with colors and sparkles and such. So we bought it.

And now it’s been sitting looking sad, waiting for them next time we will see them. Whenever that might be.
