What inspired your most recent tattoo?

Honestly that the 13th flash got me again. I really want to great a dragon on my breastbone. That's the plan for the next one. A blue and purple dragon.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My ink would say that I'm a fighter. That no matter what my life has been like I am not going to give up. I have a kitty semicolon tattoo that shows a pause in my life; not an ending. I know everyone has their own struggles in life. It is in those darkest moments that we find strength and the will to go on. To never give up and never surrender like my mom said constantly growing up. The struggles that make the little moments just so beautiful.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would put some of it away for my two little boys to help them start out when they are grown. Most of it would be put in a rainy day fund because saving seems impossible these days. Lastly I would use some of the money for a babysitter and a belated honeymoon trip with the love of my life and amazing father of our two children, Scottie.
