And then they were Kiwis

After 3 years of hoops and paperwork, we were finally awarded residency for New Zealand. As the NZIS went to put the pages into my passport, they noticed that it was full. One silly little final snag, but I was able to return to the US and get the stamps at the NZ Embassy in DC. This may be simply a legacy move, or maybe we’ll move there on a more permanent basis, we’re unsure as of now. We do know there are far more opportunities for our kids here in the US, so we’re not anxious to rush off anytime soon with them. And now that we have that in hand, Debra and I have started our divorce petition amicably. We continue to be great friends, and yet the form has changed, so we’ll recognize it legally.
