He gave her a warm smile.  "People say I should leave her more to the nanny.  I guess it is how it is done here.  Back home I remember always being with my mom or as I got older always with my father."  He thought about his late sister, well what he remembered of her.  "I remember being with my older sister too, but she died in a fire when I was little.  That may be why my mother stayed so close to me."

He looked at his daughter.  "She is named after my older sister.  I don't remember much, but I know she was my hero.  She got me out of the fire."  He explained looking back to Karen.  "Anyway, I have no idea how a father is to be around a daughter, but the people we met in London seemed so distant with their children in public anyway.  It felt off to me."
