My Grandmothers' worst nightmare



Not only are our boys going to be homeschooled and live in an RV, but they love tattoos!

We found this great package of tattoos at the grocery store and we had this crazy idea that Holden could use them as his Halloween costume. I told him when people ask him what his costume is he could say, "Your worst nightmare!" Which is so untrue! He is a child most parents would kill for. He's smart and funny and thoughtful! He amazes us everyday.

Cliff and I don't have tattoos. We're aren't saying go get a real tattoo. We're just letting our boys be kids. All kids love stickers don't they? These tattoos are really just stickers called tattoos. They're not permanent. I can see some people getting their panties in a bunch over this. Oh well. That's their problem.

The first thing Holden said when I said he could be a tattood boy for Halloween he made a funny face and said, "I'm not got going around without a shirt on." He's so smart! And another time I joked that we could shave his head and put some tattoos on his head. His eyes got real big and said, "NO WAY! I'd be embarrassed!" Just the way he said it was so funny! But he knew I was kidding. I'd never do that to him.

The tattoo on his hand is a dragon. The packet of tattoos we found was $1 and they all had Asain symbols on them. We still have a lot left. This should be an interesting Halloween!

Too funny! My husband and I don't have tatoos either but we love to watch Miami Ink and two of my kids talk about what tatoos they are going to get someday. I love it!!

Maybe I should clarify! They love play tattoos. Holden loves to get the pretend ones anytime we go somewhere and they're giving them out or appyling them. It's quite common. It's all in good fun. If he ever said he wanted a real one I'd just go along with that. He is smart enough to make his own decisions. :~)

I knew tatoos didn't look right! That would be tattoos :)

Don't worry I didn't know how to spell it either. I had to google it. lol.

And when I say Holden is old enough to make his own decisions about getting a real tattoo I obviouly don't mean now. hahahah.
