My Daughter is Sporting a New Tattoo, of a Butterfly that has Mom in the Design.

You must have made a wonderful impact on your children. That is proof that they love and respect you. These are wonderful kids you have there. So you love butterflies? I have never really ask you why you have the user name you do. Can you say or is it personal?

This is beautiful! It's so nice that they are expressing their love and admiration for you. Maybe this will become a "family tradition" to be passed down to their daughters (when they are old enough to make the decision themselves!). My tattoo is purple butterflies with pastel flowers; I just love it!

I had my first tattoo last year of a butterfly with a part of my star sign included and the toning is pink. It looks so nice and not over the top as I have never in the past been a huge fan of tattoos and why did I have one at my ripe "old age" (mid-life crisis I call it) lol But what a beautiful thought that your daughter has chosen a symbol of you included in her tattoo and now your other one feels the same! You are very lucky and I would say so are they!

That is very touching! I think I would freak out if my daughter got a tattoo - no matter what it was though. I'm not a fan of them. Anyways - it's is very cool that your daughters have thought of you and wanted to do something special for you.

Yes Butterfly that is such a lovely Gesture. My Daughter had one done a few Months back, but she only managed the Dolphin lol as it got to painful so the Mum had to be left out, lol. But I knew why she had the Dolphin done.

Well I am not a fan of tattoo's at all. I think the generation of young people will regret this fad soon in their young lives. However... the fact that they are expressing their emotions and thoughts through them says something for the fact that they give it some thought at all. I am sure your daughter loves you alot to take the time and pain to reflect it in a tattoo. COngrats,!

that is so sweet. you surely are loved by your children. a tattoo is forever just like a Mother and daughters love. it must have made you very emotional and thankful.

Awww...that is very sweet of them to do something in honor of you! Please get a picture and post it. I would love to see what they have done! And purple is my favorite color!!!!!

Most moms would of had a cow. kudos to you. I think some tattoos done in good taste like your daughters are a piece of living art. You've played an awesome roll in their lives.

Where does the "butterfly" theme come into your life? PS. I rated your photos on your profile (5 of them I think)

What a testimony to your parenting! Those girls love you deeply and wanted to honor you! I was pleased to read a few posts back about the meaning of the 'elusive' part of your user name. I have learned so much here tonight!

That is pretty neat, Butter...your daughters really love you and I'm glad it made you happy. I think butterflies are my favorite of God's creations; we have so many of them in the spring, here, and they're all multicolored; our favorite is the veregated blue one's we have... I tell CJ that they are the babies from last year and that they just got bigger. He loves them as well and chases after them; they even chase after him...lol So, I guess you could say we have a family of butterflies that love to come back home..!

Oh that sounds really pretty and the idea behind it is so touching . I have one that is a heart with wings and a banner going through it with mom in the middle of it . The mom for my stands the fact that I am a mom and nothing makes me more proud then this as my children mean the world to me . I would feel honoured though if my children this this for me also .

I remember when I came home on leave from the Army in '88. Ihad just gotten my 1st of 2 tats. It was summer and I came back from the beach with some friends. I had my swimsuit on and my mom saw my 1st tatoo of a unicorn on my shoulder. She totally freaked out and was upset w/ me for almost a week. My dad on the other hand thought it was no big deal. I didn't do it to upset anyone, I just did it because it was smething I wanted that was a little symbolic for me. I don' think it would bother me in the least to have my daughter come home w/ a tasetful tatoo and it's nice to hear that someone lse feels the same.

That is a really sweet thing for your daughters to do. Usually you hear about guys getting tatoos with mom on them, this is the first I have ever heard about a daughter doing it. You must be doing something right.

That sounds really sweet. I want a tattoo myself one day. I think I want a rose or a butterfly.I am glad that your daughter got one that honors you that is so nice

My daughter has 2 tattoos,and I have one myself, mine is also a butterfly it is yellow, blue , and red. That is so nice of your daughter to put mom in the design.

That's so special of them. I wish you had been able to take a picture for us...lol I'm still waiting....I have a small gemini tattoo but want another. My doctor is making me wait until the splits in my scar tissue are healed.. Well it's been over 6 years and every time one split heals another opens...I may never get another tattoo at this rate..lol

that's really sweet. i think it's even sweeter that 2 of your daughters are getting the same tattoo in honour of their mother. that's a beautiful thing. i'm sure it looks great too.

That is so sweet... You must have done a good job raising them and they know it... Great job :)
