As I headed to the baggage claim, my eyes shifted across the room of travelers with anxious anticipation. Suitcases wheeled by and laughter and cackle took over the crowds as I stood in one of the busiest airports frantically wondering despite being in my mid-twenties, where is my mommy? <p> Everything became a blur in the chaos of life and moving people until my cell phone rang. On the other end spoke five little words that melted my heart forever. <p> "Are you looking for someone?" <p> As I turned around with my phone still to my ear I saw my beautiful, smiling and loving mom, waiting there for me with open arms. Suddenly the world got quieter, the room a little smaller, and the only thing that mattered was that she was there. <p> Mother's Day is to honor thy mother. Whether departed or here on earth, everybody has one. I'd like to dedicate this post in part to Zachery Longacre for submitting a photo of his Mom tattoo to remember and honor her. I think his tattoo would make her proud. <p> May your hearts be filled with love, appreciation and remembrance for your mother, today and everyday. <p> Image courtesy Zachery Longacre http://tattoo.about.com/b/2013/05/12/happy-mothers-day-3.htm Sun, 12 May 2013 10:24:51 +0000 2013-05-12T10:24:51Z http://tattoo.about.com/b/2013/05/07/mother-how-many-tattoos-do-you-have-vote.htm Mommy may have a secret....How many tattoos do you have? <p> VOTE! <p> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE= "javaScript" SRC="http://guidepolls.about.com/tattoo/7929516433/poll.js?linkback=<!--#echo var="SCRIPT_URI" -n-->"></script> http://tattoo.about.com/b/2013/05/07/mother-how-many-tattoos-do-you-have-vote.htm Tue, 07 May 2013 08:27:02 +0000 2013-05-07T08:27:02Z http://tattoo.about.com/b/2013/05/05/happy-cinco-de-mayo.htm <img class="alignright" src="http://0.tqn.com/h/tattoo/1/9/L/6/2/cinco.jpg" alt="cinco" /> Happy Cinco de Mayo!
