I was told when mine were toddlers to enjoy it as it goes so quick….but not sure I was ready for the feeling that the passing of time is accelerating quite as much as it is now – Boys of 12 and 14
Older one just breezed past me at 6ft with size 12 feet and it’s still another couple of months before he’s 15. Great lad – gentle giant really (I’m biased) doing solidly at school so far.
Younger one, skinny as a whippet, wicked smart and funny but knows it and so risks getting up people’s noses (edit:mine quite often!)if he doesn’t learn some more awareness. Which I’m sure he will.
Both into sports, both driving their mom slightly mad on a daily basis, both costing a fortune in food, both loved to bits.
