  1. If you don’t have any tattoos, and you had to get one, what would it be?
  2. If you do have tattoos, and you had to get one more, what would it be?
  3. If you do have tattoos, and you had to take one away, what would it be?

    non omnis moriar

    "not all of me shall die"

    recently learned that my grandfather who died in the holocaust worked as a doctor on a research project in the warsaw ghetto hospital, before being murdered in the gas chambers. the team of doctors worked under this motto.
    touched me.
    thought i would like it tatto-ed on me in remembrance. left forearm also appealed.

    thanks for your blog, i have been reading it a while and really love it. your photos, stories, parenting style.


  3. I will hold steady with my one memorial tatoo. Otherwise I would be bare.

  4. I like writing, so probably "sic itur ad astra". It's sort of been a personal motto for me.

  5. i once had a dream where I had a rafflesia flower tattooed on the inside of my upper arm. In my dream it looked pretty nice. But in reality it is known as a "corpse flower" because of its lovely smell. I think maybe not.
