Tonight we went out to dinner to celebrate my husband’s birthday. My son is 13 and a half years old and I suddenly realized just how tall he’s getting. We were standing next to each other and he’s almost as tall as I am at 5’10!!
Later we were all talking about how fast this year is going by – We MUST be having fun! ;) I was again struck at how much he’s grown and matured just over the summer.
I’ve heard many mothers say that they can’t wait until their kids are grown and out of the house or back to infants again.
I have enjoyed every stage he’s been through. I have to admit that I’m not looking forward to the teenage years all that much though. LOL
While there are certain challenges to raising a little boy into a man, especially one with special needs. I told him today that we are raising him to be a caring, open, tolerant man. I can only hope that he will continue to think and believe the same when he’s older.
