My Growing Boy

I can’t believe Z is already 5 years old! It seems not too long ago when he was still in my belly. He is so tall now but I remember he has always been tall. When he came out he was 9.6 lbs! I tell you, he was so big he definitely didn’t look like a newborn baby. At the rate he’s growing up now I’m sure he wouldn’t be needing human growth hormones.

What he needs are clothes. Definitely more clothes. Even his five year old mind noticed how short his shirts have been getting. He complains to me that he needs more clothes. I tell him we would buy soon but I always forget. Just this afternoon I changed his shirt before he went out to play outside. I changed his shirt so he would look presentable. As I waved goodbye to him from our terrace I was shocked to see that the shirt I put on him is also too little! I thought it was one of his good shirts but I was wrong.

So this weekend my growing boy and I are going to go shopping. I would ask him to choose his own clothes this time. I want him to feel he can already make choices on his own. I just hope he won’t pick something too horrendous so I don’t have to intervene.
