What does your screen name mean? (xpost)

x-posting this great idea from kenzseth (China Adoptions).

I love all the creative names I see here. Do tell what they mean...

Mine refers to being me loudly, and allowing my own special light to shine.

Corny, I know...

Ahimsa

Cool thread idea...

Mine is ahimsa...which means "non violence" in sanskrit. Fits my views on human and animal rights!

Mine is pretty explainatory~ Our Dream Came True~ We wanted three kids with one girl and two boys and the girl being the youngest. When we thought there would not be anymore children for us because of medical problems God brought us our dream! Two bio boys and a beautiful little princess.

Great thread, can't wait to read everyone's response.

I created my screen name a year and a half ago when I was a waiting-mommy-of-three = mommy3. Now, I AM that mommy of 3, a dream I so hoped could be true one day. Not too outlandish for some, but a 18 months ago it was for me. susan

DH came up with ours -- I am Polish (Pole) and DH is Czech by ancestory -- it has nothing really to do with our adoption, except that it captures who we are.

I chose mine for a couple of reasons:

1) Our nursery is Teddy Bear themed

2) I intend to be like a MommyBear to my "cubs" one day

3) I am totally obsessed with Boyd Bear Country in Gettysburg, PA - have you been there??? You MUST go!!

One of our dogs at home is a Redbone Coonhound (if you have read the book or seen the movie Where the Red Fern Grows it is like those dogs. Ours is not used for hunting). Maybe the name for my usename came beacause he is just like a child--fun, into mischief a lot, likes to be tucked in at night.

My husband was in a horrible car accident 6 years ago. Because of his injuries, he was out of work for 2 years. We went through all of our savings and 401 K etc... My husband was feeling really bad. We were pretty broke, you get the picture. I was trying to make him feel btter, I said something like " We don't have a lot of money, but theres always us" It just kinda stuck.
