A mother of five in Wales who has a hard time keeping herself posted on her kids' birthdays has decided on the best way to remind herself of her kids' natal days. She's decided to have the dates tattooed on her arm.

Vanda Jones, 49, beamingly said she now knows exactly when to buy presents and cards for Alwen, 18, Grace, 16, Rhian, 14, Lowri, 13, and 12-year-old Vernon.

"Whenever I took my kids to the health clinic, I could never remember their birthdays off the top of my head, so I had their initials and date of birth tattooed on my arms," Jone,. a housewife, from Penygroes, near Caernarfon, said.

"It's much easier because I just have to look at my arm and I don't forget."

She also has the Welsh dragon and the words Wedi'i wneud yn Nghymru ('Made in Wales') across her chest, the Daily Post reported.
