At one month old, The Minnow is officially a dual citizen of both the U.S. and New Zealand. And while the U.S. requires us to jump through a multitude of hoops to certify that she is, indeed, entitled to U.S. citizenship, the NZ process was a walk in the park. The hardest part of it was getting an acceptable photo of her, but once that was done, we had her NZ passport in hand 4 business days later.And of course the NZ passport has a black cover. And of course it has a fern on it.
The official mug shot:
In true passport form, it's not the most flattering photo of her. I read somewhere that if you look like your passport photo, you're not well enough to be traveling. I don't think I'd say hers is quite that bad, but . . .
The first in the fam to have dual citizenship. She's filled out a lot in a few days. Cute, cute, cute!
ReplyDeleteLucky girl! Remember this, you can hold your dual citizenship over your bro's head when you get sick of having cotton candy stuck to your face. Us younger siblings need to use any sort of leverage we can :)
