We'll Miss You Bear

My Country 'Tis of Thee

My husband is no longer a stranger in a strange land. This morning (along with over 600 other permanent residents from 81 different countries) Mr.M became a naturalized citizen of the United States! Kansas Governor Sebelius spoke at the ceremony in Topeka.

He helped make history today as part of the largest group of new citizens to ever be naturalized in the state of KS at once. Another 650 people were granted citizenship later that afternoon.

He's ever so excited to VOTE this November (seriously) and perhaps he'll even get called for Jury Duty (another thrilling possibility in his civic-minded heart)!
