a new and better job comes around or addition to the family.

I would say one of the most professional and quick answers would be "Location change," basically implying you or the job had a change of locale. If you've ever moved, then you can say it in that way. It isn't as much of a lie as some of the other choices available (i.e., addition to the family or better job came along), since it can be stated even if you were fired from a previous job. "Personal issues" or "personal development" sound slightly strange, but they are personal and people generally don't want to ask about things such as that.
