Oh man, bummer! I mean, it's cool that your nephew gets to live in Australia - I'd love to live in Australia! - but it's a bummer that that keeps him away from family. Family can be good.
Heh. My little brother went out there for a year. Five years ago. And has just taken Residency. He got married out there and I couldn't attend the wedding (because of my back, a three hour car ride to the airport and then 24 hours in a plane. Not a good combination). Missing my only nephew is only part of it.
I do get to see photos and hear him burble on the phone. But that doesn't really make up for the not holding.
