Bumping this up since we have added more members to this group!

And for some reason I never did this...but mine was back when I was a momma to only 2 and the of course are cuties, so momma2doublecuties! Once I had my third guy I was going to change it to momma2triplecuties but now adding another I don't think it'd work quite right...so here it sits until I can think of something clever...

"Therese saw herself as "the Little Flower of Jesus" because she was just like the simple wild flowers in forests and fields, unnoticed by the greater population, yet growing and giving glory to God. Therese did not see herself as a brilliant rose or an elegant lily, by simply as a small wild flower. This is how she understood herself before the Lord - simple and hidden, but blooming where God had planted her." http://www.littleflower.org/abouttherese/learn/FAQs.asp
Oh my gosh, another little flower! How neat! My username "xiaohua" means little flower in Chinese, also after St. Therese of Lisieux. Dh and I started a non-profit that works with the poor (mostly orphans) in China, and the registered name in the US is China Little Flower. I don't know if it's OK to post a link to that here, but if anyone is interested you can PM me for more info.

I think I may have the dullest story behind my name!


I am currently the mother of 3 wonderful and sweet boys.
But when I joined MDC I only had the first two...and I am too cheap to pay to have my name changed
