If your ink could speak, what would it say?

I would say that if you were to kick this woman, she would come back stronger like the pressure from a diamond receives. She shines bright no matter what happens to her.

I’m still currently living with family because the cost of living is absolutely ridiculous. I’ve never owned my own home and that would just be a dream come to to be able to have a down payment to get my own home for me and my son. I’m raised my 5 children. My youngest is 17 this month and they’re all doing amazing.
