he grows
My son is two feet tall. We took him to the doctor today, and apparently he's in the ninetieth percentile for weight at this age, and off the chart for length. I am trying to decide if the reason I keep telling random people this is because I am exactly like all those other misguidedly proud parents who pick all the wrong things to care about, or because it is yet another amazing fact, like that the average take in a bank robbery is around three thousand dollars. Who knew?!? Amazing!!

My son has been taller than average and off the charts since his birth. He was 22" (10 days early) and 8lbs at birth.
Today, at age 8, he is almost 5' tall. (I'm 5'2")
I told everyone his height as well. And see, I'm still doing it.
But it seems that it is because I'm truly amazed that these little beings can grow so fast. I mean, he was in my belly, now he's standing almost eye to eye with me.
And somehow, time stood still because I can still smell his baby hair.
