    Beautiful photo Jay. I love seeing the faces of toddlers when they start exploring, we've recently shown The Boy our piano and he loves it.

    Good luck being a tough nut this week.

    I've only recently started to join in with Silent Sunday and initially found it really, really hard to avoid words. I usually write far too much ;)

    Anyway, having seen your photograph this week, and others, I really 'get it' now.

    I see 'more' because there isn't the distraction of words.

    You've beautifully captured a moment here. The fascination of a child discovering the joy of making a musical sound.

      I've just seen your post and yes, you are SPOT ON. I love your post, it's awesome, and exactly as you've said, words can sometimes be a distraction. Thank you so much! :D

    That's just beautiful. It's so hard to capture that pure toddler concentration without distracting them and destroying the moment.

      Indeed. Thankfully he was so engrossed I think I train could have gone through the room and he wouldn't have noticed :D

    My daughter plays and I wish someone had ‘captured’ me early. Precious. PS: you’re not airbrushing those children are you? Too cute. :)

    • mochabeaniemummy says:

      I think that's why I'm constantly shoving the camera at them; loads of "missed" photos with me too. And they're not really my children, I stole them from the local child modelling agency. ;D

    He's concentrating well on that.
    That's it once they get a guitar in their hands they never give up and you have to spend a fortune on guitars and stands :)

  44. Hi
    Read your post re the rules – I think I follow them all – I also credit you and link to your site – though you don't mention this in the rules.
    Maybe it isn't one but it seems only polite?!
    I just signed up here via the linky – and it seemed to accept me but I now see the linky is closed and the post doesn't seem to have gone up. Not sure what I did wrong.
    If you want to look this is my post http://www.notanottinghillmum.co.uk/Not_a_Notting
    Re whether posting pix is lazy – I don't think so – after all you have to have taken the photo don't you… but it is quicker as far as computer time is concerned.
    Also you can get v quick enjoyment out of a photopost – you don't have to read a lot of words so I think there's a definite place for it and it's a great idea.
    For those with more than one picture of course there's wordless Wednesday and This Moment on Fridays too so shodul be plenty of opportunity to get those pix out there.

      Yes you are on the linky and no it's not closed yet at this point in time; you're #148. As for credit and linking – I don't enforce it, but hope that people would have the decency to do so! :D

      I agree with your views on posting a photo, and yes, there are SO MANY other opportunities to post. People are only just starting to realise why I've laid down the law, and this week the posts have been GREAT. There's room for everyone, and yet not everyone has to cram onto the same meme, you know? ;D

      Thanks for taking part! x
