Climbing stairs

Yesterday, as usual, I walked Oliver home.

At a flight of stairs just before Arris, I let him climbed on his own without holding him, only placing my hands behind him lest he falls backwards.

Oliver actually started to climb up the stairs on his own, neither holding my hand nor the railings.

Woah! He was pretty steady and I thought he was going to make it. If not for a dead moth, wings still fluttering from the wind, that made Oliver stopped dead in his tracks mid flight. He just refused to budge upon seeing the lifeless insect. Oh well...

This morning though, he repeated his feat again and climb up the stairs to Fuji-Xerox building all by himself.
