Identity Crisis (at an early age)

I thought I'd start with me and my tree.

But I can't, well, I can, but I didn't actually know my real name until I applied for a marriage license and my parents had to fish out my birth certificate. Nobody even knew my real middle name, including me, but it didn't matter because I just made up a name instead!

Apparently there was a little trouble with my name, and it has lasted for a good long time. I went by Diane as a teeny tiny baby, but by 6 months it was Kathleen. I found the proof in my baby book.

Most everything from Joanne Brisebois' Family Tree Collection; Letter i from Cinzia Loosemore's My Journey kit; fonts: Porcelain and Pea Bev.
