Tattoos

When I was really little, sometimes my Great Grandpa Charlie kept a few cattle at MawMaw and GrandDad's place to graze.  I used to call them his "girls".  I also used to call the bull Charlie.  One day we were talking about his brand on his cattle.  I thought they were tattoos and I got mad.  I couldn't understand why he would do that to his girls.

Later, when I was about ten, my family teased me when I had to take Posey in to get her ear tattooed.  They just couldn't believe that I would do that to Posey!
