Springsteen as American Education

Living over here, we need to take some opportunities to teach the kids about America, Americana, American things and people.

After C and D had their naps, we all watched the highlights from...

Glastonbury- the British Woodstock-type music fest.

The headliner last night was...

Bruce Springsteen, who did most of his big hits, except- travesty- Born in the USA. We watched a few, but all danced to Glory Days, which then led into Louie, Louie.

Now it's about time for D's first birthday.

She arrives!

Dorothy Wijnanda Park has finally arrived. A healthy, petite (6lb, 7 oz) baby was born at 1:18 pm today, 28th of June. Baby and mother are both recovering from the delivery at Kingston Hospital in fine form. The first Park female on this branch of the family in 5 generations gets her name from my grandmother (Dorothy M. Baetcke Park) and a relative on Bella's side (Isabella Dorothea Akers). And also inherits Bella's middle name. Any advice on coping with daughters is heartily welcomed by the father.
