I think you nee...I'm just catching up on your blog. I think you need to do what is best for you. I think it is important to have a family identity, and Roper is your family. You will probably want to change your name and I would think your kids would want the same thing. I little work now ( I know I still haven't changed mine...so much paper work!) will pay off.The Calder'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801264949587974320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094913725504148133.post-23078330896109437582008-10-23T23:30:00.000-07:002008-10-23T23:30:00.000-07:00i am nieve- i didn't really know you could change ...i am nieve- i didn't really know you could change hyrums name without having full custody...<BR/>tough call- i definitely see you as a roper and hyrum is a roper too but i don't know if it would be best or not. i support either decision. sorry i am no help.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11087186764041623416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094913725504148133.post-40873042039272168942008-10-06T16:22:00.000-07:002008-10-06T16:22:00.000-07:00i think you're right... that's a difficult decisio...i think you're right... that's a difficult decision. i have mixed feelings myself having had a few different last names and i've never been married. A last name is a very important thing. I always wish I had the option to change my last name to my mom's last name and not my Dad's but then I was old enough to have some sort of opinion on the matter. Now I just went with the flow. And we've talked about this before: but in the end, no matter what you decide it's just so vitally important to be transparent with your kids and let them know anything they want to know... and then maybe they can actually make a decision. ??? I don't know if that helps. But I had always wished my parents had been more real and upfront from the start. :) Love you!SaritaMxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01710030448748233968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094913725504148133.post-89404051820412563582008-10-05T17:59:00.000-07:002008-10-05T17:59:00.000-07:00Hyrum looks ssoooooooooooooo cute in this picture!...Hyrum looks ssoooooooooooooo cute in this picture! and... like he's about 4 years old. yikes he is tall.
