Pete is growing up. Suddenly. Over the last 3 months he's grown about 8 inches taller. He is only a few inches shorter than me right now. His feet have grown into a men's size 9 1/2 shoe. In the fall I bought him jeans in a husky because a regular didn't fit him. And now those same jeans simply slide off his slender frame. It's a good thing its the season for new clothes. He has new shorts that actually fit him. His voice is changing too. He has the teenage boy squeaky deep voice going on as well. And he smells like Axe body wash and deodorant. He said he likes his hair short now and will not be growing it back (a mature decision). And he told me that he has a crush on a girl. It's impossible for me to figure out which girl since he really only hangs out with girls as far as I can tell.
We have a guest visiting from Australia. She barely recognized Pete when she first saw him. She was here in September and he has changed enough that he almost looks like a different kid. A grown up kid. Not a kid at all. Sigh...
