I Have A New Name
I got married in 1968 and divorced in 1972. I kept my married name since I had a child from the marriage.
I had a brief, icky second marriage in 1978 and divorced in 1979 and had my name restored in the divorce decree to my first husband's name for my son's sake.
My 1st husband has not been seen in 35 years but I kept his name for my son's sake even though his father abandoned him.
I have wanted to change it back to my maiden name for years.
Well, I did it Monday!!!!!
I am so very happy to have my name back after 40 years of carrying a name that is not my family!!!!
My son is 38 and gone from home trying to find himself so it does not affect him since he is a grown man.
My Mom and Dad are thrilled that I am now carrying the family name again. My Dad is very ill and he is so happy about this! When I told him I was going to do this, he grinned from ear to ear and said I should have done it 40 years ago. LOL
Now I am back to my real name and it really feels good!!!
