Eagle

Eldest soaring like an eagle!
Our eldest grandson, having had his (undeserved) criminal record purged, and now with a very pleasant girlfriend (and wholeheartedly accepted by her parents), is about to ‘fly the nest’. Girlfriend has moved to Canada, and he’s following, with our blessing.
He has been accepted to work there, and has posted the news on Facebook. Our initial reaction was “Gee, that’s risky!” but then we thought “No, good move!” It’ll be a slap in the face for his selfish vindictive ‘female progenitor’ (I hesitate to call it ‘mother’) and any of her associates, and the family/Gang that threatened him – and the Legal (not-Justice) system here. It’s also an affirmation of our upbringing skills (mostly letting him flourish in his own right with a little guidance) versus the System(CYFS)’s “lock ’em away with all the other (supposed) crims”.
Kia ora, lad, and Kia kaha!
