18                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

19 VANZI, Chief Judge.
 1   {1}   Mother appeals from the district court’s custody order, ruling, among other

 2 things, that Child should remain with Father in New Mexico and not move to

 3 California to live with Mother, Child’s stepfather, and his step- and half-siblings. We

 4 issued a notice of proposed summary disposition, acknowledging that this was a

 5 difficult custody decision. We saw no abuse of discretion, however, and proposed to

 6 affirm. Mother has responded to our calendar notice with a notice of intent, indicating

 7 that she does not intend to file a memorandum in opposition and will not oppose our

 8 proposed disposition.

 9   {2}   For the reasons stated in our notice, we affirm the district court.

10   {3}   IT IS SO ORDERED.
