I love this photo. The 5yo had not long turned two and he did everything at full speed, with such enthusiasm. Not much has changed!
I can’t take credit for this photo, my husband took it, but I knew that this was the image I wanted to use when J came round again in this project.
We were at the Museum of Flight, just outside Edinburgh. It was a beautiful, sunny June day (the 8yo was even in shorts!). We were there with friends for a special Robot Wars event, and it was a wonderful afternoon.
One of those days that stay with you.
I can still remember the 5yo jumping off this wall. I can remember the 8yo running around with his friend, and playing on the zip wire. I can remember going inside Concorde. I can remember watching the robots battle, and seeing a Dalek. I can remember the 5yo being scared by the giant moving robot that they had!
It might have been almost four years ago, but it could have been yesterday.

Oh how brilliant! What a wonderfully captured photograph and such great memories too. Thank you so much for joining in. I have to say I’ve really missed your blog. Only 3 and a bit more weeks commuting to London then you’ll see a lot more of me! Hope you’re all good xxx
Thank you Charly, that’s a really lovely comment x
Love the intense look on his face, and that tongue! So cute :)
Thank you x
Amazing how much a static photo can just bring it all back. I know this is why I take photos. To capture a moment. Perfect. #AlphabetPhoto
It is, isn’t it x
I have few moments like this tattoed in my mind as well. Beautiful capture. #AlphabetPhoto
Thank you Merlinda, special days x
Oh how I love days like that, that stay with you. Great action shot by hubby. x #alphabetphoto
Thank you x
Ooh I haven’t come across this alphabet photography project before. I’ll have to go and have a look!
I love when little kids start to get brave enough to do things like jump off walls! Elsa is suddenly into climbing and she has no fear at all. I’m sure it won’t be long before she’s jumping off things too.
It can be a bit scary to watch, but it’s wonderful to see their confidence grow :)
This is a lovely photo, and it’s great how much you can remember from the day just by looking at this capture x
Thank you x

Beautiful memories and definitely a lovely captured moment. Love the movement frozen in time, the determined face that could see the end goal of the effort being made. It’s so lovely when we remember wonderful moments like yesterday; they make our presents, that must lovely. Thanks for sharing. #MyCapturedMoment 11
It is, isn’t it? This one is so clear in my mind x
