A Day at the Races

We spent this past Sunday in Hartfield, East Sussex, showing my parents some English Countryside.

Bella, Christian and I also ran a race. C, the 2.5k; Bella, the 10k- after running the 2.5k with C(!); me the 10k.

It was,of course, C's first ever real race. He was a bit nervous for the first k, but finished strong. I think he felt pretty good for getting through the whole thing.

Here he is with Cousin Ollie and then the exhausted family.

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.
