Best Cousins Ava and Luxie, October 2004
Recently we were discussing Nate's tattoo with Luxie. He has a tattoo of my initials in graffiti on his left bicep and she asked what it was. We explained in basic lingo that daddy got it to show mommy how much he loved her.
Tonight this conversation transpired between Luxie and I:
Me: "Mommy loves you."
Luxie: "Yeah. Daddy has tattoo. He loves mommy."
Me: "Yes, he got his tattoo to show mommy how much he loves her. And mommy wears her ring to show how much she loves daddy."
Luxie: "I get a tattoo for Ava." (big smile)
Me: "Oh? You want to get a tattoo to show how much you love Ava?"
Luxie: "Yeah! I get a pink one!"
In Luxie's little world cousin Ava hung the moon, made the stars to twinkle, and set the planets in their orbit. I hope they stay such sweet friends forever.
