Hi everyone! My name is Kristin and I'm 28 yo married mother of 3.  I have always wanted a tattoo (or 2 or 3 or 4 ) but have always held back because of my husbands extreme dislike of them.  But I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to stand my ground and do what makes ME happy. It's caused a lot of problems in our marraige but that's life I guess.  Anywho I am super excited about my tattoo, and wanted to share it! I got a tribal bee and it will be going over to my ribs/side where I am getting an orchid that will go down to my waist. That one will be pricey and painful so I am putting it off until January for my bday.  Anyway I've rambled, sorry.... : )

Hi there and welcome to the board and congrats on your first tattoo. It's very interesting; I don't think I've seen one like that before but I like! You sound very enthusiastic about this one and the one you plan on getting in the future; hopefully, your dh will come to accept your choices that make you happy. ;-)

Can't wait to see the new one in January! You'll have to be sure to come back and show it off!

Hi there and welcome to the board! I'm glad that you pushed forward and got a tattoo, though I am sorry that it's caused problems in your marriage. I hope that your DH will come to understand that you wanted this for yourself and has no reflection on your feelings for him and that it should not interfere with his feelings for you. This is your body and you should be able to do what you want with it.

I got my second tat this past spring, one that I've wanted for two years. Fortunately, my DH loves it as much as I do. He also knows that I am planning more in the future.

I love your tribal bee! I've seen many tribal tats, but never a bee before and it is very cute! I hope that your next one goes well for you in January and that you will post a pic of it then. A tat is a very cool birthday gift for yourself.
