This ode was penned after a telephone conversation with our daughter-in-law Gillian (Oxford).
As we spoke on the phone, Matthew saw the opportunity to defeat the child gate and take to the stairs. He was around a year old.
Recently we have been Ethan-minding, now fifteen months.
Over the last few weeks Ethan has mastered the art of climbing stairs, both up and down.
Clever, clever boys!
