I have been meaning to get this tattoo for 6 years now. 7 years ago, on Aug 16, 2005 my grandmother passed away. She meant the world to my sisters and I, so we all decided to get a tattoo in her memory - 'Nonna' which means grandmother in Italian. My sisters both got theirs while I was pregnant with Isabella. I waited WAY too long to get mine. The two birds represent Isabella and Simon. I know my grandmother is watching over them. I just wish she could have met them...
Here is my tattoo with a few before/during shots:
