So I really want to get one, and I've always wanted a memory of my grandma on a tattoo ... I've settled on getting "Tot ziens (and a tiny heart)" on my left wrist. My grandma never used to say goodbye, but she would say "tot ziens" - she was Flemish and in Flemish it means "see you again". I was very close to her and it's on her gravestone etc etc so it's pretty important to me.

How do I break the news to my dear old mother who hates tattoos? I know her main arguement will be that my grandma didn't like them, so honoring her with one is stupid, but it's my way of remembering her ...

Also, honestly how painful are wrist tattoos? It'll only be quite small and in kind of loopy cursive thin font ...
