This came to mind today. I want to share
It is funny now.
But while I was experiencing this.
I dreaded all the documents and court time I was facing to legally accept what
I thought was my first name for over twenty-six years.
To fix it
I had to get a copy of the document that enrolled me in Kindergarten.
What name was on that could legally be my name.
Or I could have any name I wanted since the original cert was blank.
I was a ten pounder.
My mother passed out and didn't get my name on my birth certificate.
Twenty six years later.
I needed a true copy.
I was still without a first name. Then it gets worse....
I finally fixed that after toying with the idea I could commit crime since I had no first name.
Then I finds out when my father retires.
His last name wasn't the last name he used for 65 years.
Now legally I had to correct that.
If he chose to use his legal name that was the registered one
or by court order change his name to
The one I have now
was his choice.
I had no first name on my cert. wow...
Me with no first..name no last.. name.
Now all nine children in the family...my five sisters and three brothers all belonged on a single milk carton...
at these faces...
DO YOU KNOW WHO WE ARE?
The question is do you have your passport? A true copy of your Birth Cert.
