You grow up with your name for 26 years and in the course of one day, your last name is forever changed. I had gotten used to my maiden name, it's who I identified with. Before we got married I couldn't wait for the day that I would take my husband's last name. I remember wanting it so bad. Now that I have it, I'm finding it hard to identify with it. Luckily, I do answer to my new married name when my students say it, but I notice that sometimes I still write my old initials and have to redo paperwork.
I know it will happen in due time and I can't wait to be able to fully identify with my new name. I love my husband and I am so glad to have taken his last name. Now, I get to enjoy this new part of my life.
