I am so Not Ready for this! We seem to talk more about girls and what goes on with them around this "crossing over" age from tweens to teens, but I just got a fresh worry slap in the face when I ran upon a lady and her son in Walmart yesterday. The boy is in 7th grade (between my 2 kids). Its probable he's already turned 13, but if so, not by far.
I first recognized the mother, then a glance at her side made me wonder who the little man was. Let me tell you this kid comes about to his mom's shoulder in height. It took me a minute to realize this was her son. His hair is very thick, and so is his mustache!!
She's letting this 12/13 year old child wear a mustache that puts some men's to shame! He didn't say anything and I found myself wondering what kind of voice would come out if he did. Has his voice changed yet?
Please tell me my DS age 11 isn't going to turn into a miniature man overnight! I am not ready to see hair on his face and wouldn't let him wear it to school in 7th grade if I did. . .Swoon. . .
And I thought raising a son would be a breeze compared to a daughter. Oh, boy!
