Announcing Jennifer's new Middle Name

[jeni_mama]

My daughter's full name now is: Jennifer Shu Lan Muheim.

I feel very happy now that I've given my daughter her own individuality...her own fate...her own fresh start.

very cool. what does it mean? what nationatlity is it? and sorry, i do'nt konw why i didn't know tthis before, but what was her old middle name?

I'm not exactly sure what it meant. It was a nickname that my mom gave Jeni when she was born. My dad nicknamed her "Tepthida" and Henry nicknamed her "Bopha." Steven nicknamed her...I'm not sure how to spell it but it means the littlest one in the family. I really liked Shu Lan, so I decided to change LeeAnn (her original middle name on birth certificate) to Shu Lan. It's a Chinese name, which I thought would be more fitting since she's mostly Chinese than anything else. Brandon's mixed of German, Portguese, Dutch and Irish and I'm only 1/8 Cambodian.
