As I said a little while back my son had his first pimple, puberty is coming. I woke up today and could swear the kid grew three inches. He is growing before my eyes way to fast! I could be wrong but I could swear that at the beginning of summer he was a lot shorter than he is now.. *laughs* but now he is almost as tall as me. Don’t get me wrong I am only 5′3 so it’s not like he is some giant or something but I know he was only a little taller than my shoulder on his birthday. Geeze when they say kids grow to fast I didn’t know they meant it literally. He is eating nonstop too. I didn’t know someone could eat as much as he does. He is ALWAYS hungry. It kind of makes me laugh but it’s kind of scary too. He is growing up and going to have to face the world soon. I hope he makes it through puberty without incidents of major depression. Some kids go through that any way but he is already at high risk. UHhhh what can I do though but closely monitor him. I have talked to him and he knows how important it is for him to talk to me if his moods get severe and have tried to prepare him for the mood swings that are naturally going to happen and the extra moods he may have to deal with. I hope I’m over preparing him.
