flyingduster, thanks for the story, it really gives life to something that had no meaning to me by now
Hope you'll have many love, laughter and positive loud noises (actually, with a baby you won't have to work very hard for this, maybe !) as long as it will make you happy... I agree that it's a better idea than to have his name tattooed, because well, if somethings happen, you may regret... but at the same time this quote will always be your link to him, so if something happens, you'll see him in your tattoo as well as if it was his name... at least that's my opinion... but I don't think it's a problem, because even if you someday end your lifes separatly, he will always have a role in your life, because you loved him, and he's the father of your son, etc. That's in fact why I can imagine myself having my hubby names tattooed someday... whatever happen, I'll never be abble to erase our love from me. mmm, that's cute ! I should note that for later 
And you'll make me blush again with your praise !
I'll end regretting I gave you gibberish instead of a real transcription ! Just kidding !
Edti : oh ! And a very merry Christmas to both of you too ! 
haha, yeah I agree that if something happened and we split up (of course I'd like to say that will never happen! But you never know I guess...) then while the saying will still connect me to him, it wouldn't be as bad as having his name blatantly written on me... eg; my first tattoo was a gift from my ex for my birthday. It was my own choice of design and so forth, but it was a gift from him and it reminds me of him at times. I still love the design though, and it means something to me about my life, regardless of the fact I have since broken up with him. However if I had his
name on me, even in tengwar or something (ie not in obvious english) that'd be just weird now. Awkward and weird!! I loved him, and I still get along with him now; many years later. But if I had his *name* tattooed on me, I dunno, the idea just weirds me out! lol! And yet I adore the design I got done as his gift to me...
And hence, I'm LOVING the design I'm working up for this tattoo, so even if we split one day (*touches wood*) I think I could still keep it and be happy with it, but I just couldn't get his name put on me... no matter how much I adore him. My son however, will ALWAYS be my son, no matter what!
Because you're working so hard so close to christmas, you get a sneak preview of my design so far:
