Another Growth Spurt!

growing-pains-001Chis has hit another growth spurt recently and is now the same height as me – 5′ 7″.  He is delighted with this and loves nothing more than standing right in front of me and looking me straight in the eyes – most unnerving!

What is great about this is that it means he is growing upwards still and his curve is not distorting his height. His older brother is now 6′ 2″ at age 16 so I think Chris will also be tall if we can keep his spine relatively straight.

As well as growing in height I think he is also growing in maturity…well sometimes I think that!!  He will now go and do his exercises some days without me or Steve having to nag him about it – now that’s a really great development.
