Reviver of the Lost Art...


....of walking in a manner that's tremendous fun!

You'll see what I mean when you play the video. Don't knock it till you've tried it; it's a lot more laughs than your oh-so-solemn 'I'm-all-grown-up-and-must-be-taken-seriously' walk! And don't bother giggling because my gait isn't as elegant as your's (yet), I'm the one enjoying my half-run-half-toddle-tumble-every-two-minutes brand spanking new walk.

When was the last time you enjoyed the way you walked? I tell ya, you gotta try my way- I've been at it non-stop since last Friday and have had such a great time, I haven't really bothered to eat or sleep! And while you contemplate giving it a go (I know adults take a long time deciding to do anything), have a look at my 'Summer Syon' slideshow- it's all the fun I've had in the last two, sun-drenched (for England) months, starting with my first birthday. Thanks to all the super birthday gifts you gave me, I've had a fantastic time playing outdoors.

And finally, since I have taken time out (from my high-octane toddle-a-thon) to post this piece, I must thank all my readers once again for continuing to check in despite my sporadic blogging. I have now had a thousand hits (and none of them Mommy, Daddy or me) and feel very privileged and humble that there are people out there who care enough to keep reading (even in Brazil, apparently!).

Thank you all, and do let me know if you enjoy walking my walk!

Hi,
You don't know me, but suffice to say that finding this site has been one of the highlights of my week. My name is also Syon, and I am a graduate student in the United States. I have never met another person with my name! You have a beautiful baby, and I wish him all the best.
Cheers,
Syon Bhanot

Oh, glad all that walking hasn't stopped you from writing! Usually the athletic kinds don't like to.

BTW, I'll let you in on a secret (NO ONE knows, so keep it on the down low, dude) I STILL walk that way. As you said...it's FUN!

Hi, I just found this site. My son's name is Syon as well. He was born Jan 2009. I am Japanese and my husband is Trinidadian. We name our son Syon because we liked the origin of the name(my husband has Indian heritage) and also it's easy to pronounce to my family(Japanese). Your Syon is sooooo cute!
