Two weeks of eating and sleeping

The children are noticeably taller. My husband thinks that this is because they sleep for twelve hours and eat, like sharks, constantly when they are awake. That is what vacation time is for: to give your body time to get caught up. They don't grow like weeds; they grow like a well tended garden.

If your husband is right and sleeping makes them taller than my kid should be about 8 feet by now and she's only five. Sadly, she's one of the shortest in her class.

Well, perhaps it will all catch up with her. Maybe what she needs is sunlight, in short supply right now. Five year olds are actually busy building brain connections. It's growing but you just can't see it. Mine are 12 and 15!
