OPINION

BYBEE, Circuit Judge:

We are asked to decide whether Defendant-Appellant Tyler George Farmer’s conviction under California Penal Code 19299 § 288(a), for lewd and lascivious acts involving a child, categorically qualifies as “a prior conviction ... relating to aggravated sexual abuse, sexual abuse, or abusive sexual conduct involving a minor or ward.” 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(b)(2). Although the answer is more complicated that it at first appears, we are convinced that the answer is yes, and we affirm the judgment of the district court.
