It's been a long road, but after many years living in the UK and jumping through many hoops we finally became British Citizens on 22 November 2017 in an official private swearing in ceremony. It was an emotional time as we took this step. Feel very grateful for this blessing of security this brings our family being able to stay in the UK as citizens. I think citizenship is like having children. I have equal love for both of mine. They are very different and I wouldn't give either one of them up, but I love them both! The UK has become our home physically and in many ways culturally. It's been interesting to reflect on our life and our time here and what it's meant for our family. I'm of course American first, but in many ways I identify as British more. Either way I bleed red white and blue!
