Well it has been over a week and I got the family cross tattoo. As a background, my husband has been overseas. Before he left he designed this cross to represent our family, him and me and our two kids. He had the cross tattooed on his forearm. So I thought it would be a great surprise if I were get the same cross tattooed right before he came back as a surprise. My husband is now home. On the night he returned, as we were getting ready for bed I kept turning my back on him to see if he would notice. Nothing. I got a little frustrated, so I went into the bathroom and got my brush and a hair band and sat on the edge of bed braiding my hair. All of the sudden I heard, "What did you do, that is disgusting!". I froze solid and just turned around to look at him. He was sitting there smiling and laughing, "I can't believe you did this, lay down so I can get a better look". At which point he got out a flash light and took a look at the tattoo. After he was done looking at it, he kissed me and said "I love you too".

Hi there Bytemi! That's really cute. I thought at first, he is angry. Glad that he appreciated what you've done.

Yeah I thought that also, what a relief when he was laughing. Man that would have been bad bad, if he didn't like it.
