The Meaning Behind the Ink: The Story

My rainbow girl

My daughter has a cognitive disorder and is an amazing artist. She especially loves drawing rainbow girls. I knew my next tattoo would be something Norah drew. I told her I needed a rainbow girl that was just for me, because it was going to be my tattoo.

 

My girl is living sunshine, and that comes through in her art. I love having her on my arm where I can see it all the time—and others can see it, too.

 

The photos are of my sweet girl, her original drawing, and the artist’s interpretation.
