Documenting Teenage Growth and Change

Am I there Yet?
Every few days this entire school year Blake has walked up to me, compared his height to mine, and then said, “Dang it!”

On Feb. 22 I said this about it on the Roundtable:

“For some reason he thinks that one of these days he’s going to walk up to me and he’s either going to be as tall as me or taller.”

Guess what?

He was right.

He DID walk up to me outta-absolutely-nowhere and bang — he was totally taller.

Do You Have a Teen?

What are you noticing? How are you documenting it?
