Passage

When he came I was ready. Blond-headed blue-eyed beauty, quite simply immaculate. We bonded like crazy, man! He grew up. Hit twenty-one. Adult child pride, sorrow, strength. My body forever crowned with your tattoo now, thanks son. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For Nette's contest, "Crown of my Body" Written on June 26, 2012

WOW! Talk about a cool mama! Hey, chum, thanks for the alphabet contest- great idea. O-riginal ;-) And thanks for my placement. Glad it moved ya! As far as the tatoo goes, when my girl hits 21 I'll be ... AWK... 63! Not sure how cool at tat will be for me... reminds me of Hell's Grannies from Monty Pyton. LOL. Now I'm really aging myself. Hugs to you
