I seem to forget that there are a lot of you who follow my blog but aren’t friends on facebook so I forget you don’t see the things I post on there. This was my post from April 20th:
Today I got another tattoo and it just happens to be my favorite. Bob’s heartbeat from one of his many EKG’s on my ribs. Four beats of his EKG for him, Logan, Caleb and I and the connection that will always be. No matter how much time passes, the love will always remain. Thanks Jennifer Roades for going with me and thank you Meghan O’Brien for helping me pick out which EKG to use.
I Carry Your Heart With Me
By E. E. Cummings
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart) i am never without it(anywhere i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet) i want no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

I wanted to get this done on the 17th for Bob’s birthday but the guy I wanted to do it is off on Tuesday’s so I waited until Friday. The boys and I did get to go to Bob’s grave for his 34th birthday though. We cleaned it up, put out new flowers and released balloons. Some of our police friends met us out there and then we went out to eat Mexican food since it was Bob’s favorite.
