I really appreciate all of the sincere well wishing and the shared experiences. I have been present for several brandings and actually performed a few as well - but that was a long time ago - and, quite honestly, this time I really wanted to be the hand to hold, and not the hand holding the brand. I can't even explain how amazing it was to hold Kat's hand and look into her eyes while she had our brand burned into her thigh... To be able to talk her through the pain and softly remind her of how much we love her and how proud of her we are (oh, and also to remember to BREATHE! :P) was a much more powerful for me than the experience of doing a brand ever was. It is such a defining moment in the ever deepening committment between us and Kat. I think that she has never felt more owned, and this is such a beautiful symbol of that ownership. What a profoundly connecting moment! For all those who are curious I've added a picture of the brand to our couples account MisterAnd Mistres - it is a key shaped design combining my "E" and Taggard's "T" ... I designed it myself :) ~MsElle
