My poor TJ has had a rotten time of it. He missed the 2nd week of school due to the flu. He blew his knee out in late Sept, therefore missing 2 days. He spent the next 2 weeks on crutches and is still excused from PE. Last week he came down with a cold and sore throat. He made it through school carrying a bag of cough drops and a dose of Ibuprofen. Yesterday, he woke up unable to talk or swallow. Unable to go to school...again. A trip to the doc was in order. STREP THROAT! As we were leaving the exam room, TJ grabs a alcohol prep pad and starts wiping the door handle. I ask him what he is doing, his reply " It's the small random acts of kindness that make the world a better place" If he would have let me, I would of kissed him right then and there. Not in the cards of a 12 yo hormonal big/little boy. TJ did revel in the fact that he is now 5' 3 1/2 inches and 100 lbs!
Up 1 1/2 in and 7 lbs from his last visit 2 months ago! Puberty, what an amazing thing.
