Both partners. One day. A real synthesis.

Should we move into Christchurch city this winter?

The surface question was about the move. The axis underneath, as your notes consistently revealed, was a different question · what does each of you owe the village you have built, and what does each of you owe the child you are raising inside it? James moved first because the curriculum question was decisive for him; Alexandra moved second, more slowly, because the loss of the village was a real cost the curriculum did not erase. The verdict is a yes, with a quiet grief.
