CREDITS: The words of the song "Reach" by S Club 7 inspired me to make this LO of my sweet 8yo granddaughter Tayler for Week 3 of SUAS. "There's a place waiting just for you It's a special place where your dreams all come true Fly away, swim the ocean blue Drive that open road, leave the past behind you Don't stop gotta keep moving Your hopes have gotta keep building Never ever forget that I've got you and you've got me, so Reach for the stars Climb every mountain higher Reach for the stars Follow your hearts desire Reach for the stars And when that rainbow's shining over you That's when your dreams will all come true" Credits: Mikkel Paige Diamond Shapes Star Danielle Young First Down Navy & Black papers Weeds & Wildflowers Reverie Orange Star Swirl Jennilyn Fairy Dust Overlays Jen Wilson Blue Flourish Christina Renee Lavender Shooting Stars Mikkel Paige Diamond & Pearl Shapes Star Lisa Whitney Stand Up Mini Globe and Bird Christina Renee Stand Up Ribbon Weeds & Wildflowers Grab bag Rust Bow Mikkel Paige Ring Around Ribbons Carla Gibson Altered Wings (recolored) Weeds & Wildflowers Beliving in You flower Doodles, orange stitching, orange stars, paper star Aphas: Weeds & Wildflowers Being Me Alpha Weeds & Wildflowers Believing In You Grungy Alpha Christina Renee French Country Grunge Alpha Mikkel Paige Pink Plastics Alpha Vicki Stegall Glitz Green Glitter Jen Wilson Stitched Black Alpha Jennilyn Stardust Hotel Alpha Fonts: Civilian & Fine Hand

When our son Shane told us he wanted a tattoo as a graduation present, I was not too happy. Yes, all his friends had them, but this is my baby we're talking about!!! And a tattoo is forever!!! A few years earlier I had admired tattoo work on two different people and both had them done by the same tattoo artist, so I told him that if he got one, I had to choose who did it and suggested that guy, Larry Davis. Shane agreed and spent months looking for just the right lion. Finally he found this photo of a young male lion and knew that it was "the one". After calling about eight tattoo parlors, I finally found Larry. We met with him and looked at his portfolio and knew he was the perfect artist for the job. His tattoos looked like pencil sketches and he specialized in portraits. Larry told Shane that he had to wait until he was 18, so Shane got it two weeks after graduation, on his 18th birthday. Four hours -- and $300 -- later, I did have to admit that it was beautiful work.
