At first glance it may seem that I am a mathematician. This is often the assumption when I am standing in line at the grocery store and someone asks what the PI symbol on my neck means.
18 years ago this year my brother and I were adopted together out of foster care. Our adoption was finalized on March 14th (PI day: 3.14). To us adoption is very important because it gave us the opportunity to have a family. Against all odds my brother and I were also able to be adopted together. Considering the small detail that we are “half siblings”, it really was amazing that we were placed together in the same family.
I love my brother and I am so grateful that we were adopted together.
I believe that tattoos were meant to spark conversations. I enjoy telling my story about adoption quite often to strangers who stare at my neck.
