Hi,
I am actually a long time "lurker", and just joined this great board today. My ID is what my mom has always called me, a combo of my 1st and middle names, so Kiffie it is, plus some special dates added in...that is the sweet memory part...now, if she happened to use my full 1st AND middle name, I was like, uh-oh, and always hoped the phone would ring, as that would put her back to the nice calm voice, and I could hope my older brother would do something ornery, and she would forget about my "misdeed"... :mrgreen:

My name Mama Yitu is from Gabon, Africa where I lived among the Bapounou people for 21 years. My birth name is Faith. In Yipounou, faith is "yitu". The "mama" is their reference of respect--kind of like "Miss". So....

My oldest grandchild is named Mies Joseph. His middle name, Joseph, is in memory of my brother who was killed in a car accident 9 years ago. My grandmother was called Nana; my Mom is called Nana; and now I am called Nana too. so now I am Joeysnana

I took my name because, as others have said, several names I tried were alreay taken. I love the Serenity Prayer and I know it is by grace we put those qualities in our lives. I have spent numerous years trying to respond rather than react, also, working on not "freaking out" over stressful circumstances. Naming myself Serenitybygrace is like a goal I aim at and I use combinations of those words and numbers, etc., for other passwords.

Not very fancy Belle was the name of the kitty my daughter gave me as a Christmas present the year I left her dad ( she could be meemers twin) Belle is my favorite princess and Beauty and the Beast is my favorite movie
and she was so little she fit in the palm of my hand. We had each other for
17 wonderful years and I had to put her to sleep as she had Cancer.
Hense the name Litttlebelle.
