I’ve been reasonably short all my growing life, and I eventually grew to 7 inches taller than my mum, I looked up to her then, and now I’m still looking up to her, way in the stars.
I can not think of a more worthy goal than giving Benjamin a reason to look up to me, not just because he is shorter. A goal for parents, grandparents, teachers…the list is endless.Of all of your fantabulous posts, and they always are, I LOVE this one so much! I ask your permission to copy your art and words to remind myself daily of my goal. Thank-you!
I remember seeing a show years ago and a short statured parent was fearful of how his average sized child would see him in years. A doctor had the father stand on different steps and showed him how no matter how tall he was his son always saw him the same way. I loved that.
Excellent

Great idea, but I might be bias since I’m the shortest one in our family. 🙂

Ahhhhhhh…..I’m the tallest at any given time because I decided long ago that I am as tall as I want to be. 🙂
