What I'm (Trying To) Teach Children (#154)

  • Three year-old girl: What's that on your arm?
  • Me: It's a tattoo.
  • Girl: -reaches over and touches my tattoo for a minute- Does it come off?
  • Me: No, it's permanent. It's gonna be there forever.
  • Girl: Oh. -pause- Why did you get it?
  • Me: Because I have a lot of conviction.
  • Girl: What?
  • Me: It means... I'm earnestly confident about a lot of things. And that those things are really important to me.
  • Girl: What?
  • Me: -laughs a little- I really, really wanted it.
  • Girl: Oh. Okay. -pause- Can I have a snack?
