This is a guest post written by my “big little sister” Chanel. ::::::::::::::::::::::::: It was a warm summer day in the year of 2001. I sat my sisters and my Mom down, tried my hardest to not squirm or twiddle with my fingers and proceeded to tell them “my secret.” I felt the overwhelming [...]

A couple of years ago, I discussed my mom’s and sisters’ addiction to tattoos and my equally strong fear of getting one.
