Like Father...

Standing on the platform at the train station this morning I spy two men. It is instantly apparent they are father and son, the similarity being so striking. I wonder if they realise how alike they are, if the son looks to his father for an indication of how he will appear in twenty-odd years time. And I am touched that they are together, obviously off on an adventure; a Grand Day Out in shorts and sunshine.

You certainly captured the feeling, and amazingly well.

Lovely vignette. I'm sure the son hasn't thought yet about the future he sees in front of him...

Thanks. This blog is just about moments.

Jocelyn
Do any of us - especially in front of our parents?

I hope one day that someone will see my son and I standing together and think the same thing. As of now, he is two weeks old and happy.
