Pre-emptive stroll

A father-son bonding experience in a beautiful nature setting far away from the busy city. Just two big smiles and two hearts filled with warmth. Awe inspiring!

Nice cats-in-the-cradle teaching moment!

Learning how to use guilt early.

Walking long serene stretches with that inquisite child can be tiresome but worth every step.

Something I missed, sadly. Dad died when I was just 6 months old. However, for her figure and her health, Mother walked daily. So did her second-eldest sister. Between the two of them, they got me up and walking (actually, running) at 9.5 months, and I never looked back to see who was falling off the pace. By the time I was a year old, Mother wrote in my baby book “He is a quick-silver personality who hates autocracy, but can be ruled with reason. However, he is a very active child, and 5 minutes of watching him tires me out.” ;^)

As a result of that “tires me out”, she assigned my 7-year-older brother to baby-sit me. Brother learned patience, and I learned to mind since he insisted on autocracy (within reason). We both benefited from the arrangement.
