Today, Whitney Houston would have turned 49 years old, and though the singer is no longer with her adoring fans or family, her daughter Bobbi Kristina and her partner Nick Gordon got something to remember her legacy forever: matching tattoos.
Bobbi sent out these tweets yesterday honoring her mother and detailing her ink plans:
I’m REALLY REALLY missing my mommy today . 2morrow is #MOMMYSBDAY of course. Once it hits 12 am mommy it’s your birthday & I am going 2 celebrate it 2 thee fullest! Bc YOU deserve it damn it, YOU deserveNothingbuttheBEST!

The last pic revealed the matching “WH” tats above, symbolizing Whitney Houston, her faith, and her memory.
Since midnight, Bobbi has also been trying to get #HAPPY49thBIRTHDAYMOMMY trending on Twitter. Hopefully she’s comforted by the support of her family and followers on this bittersweet day.
