It would be, but like I said, we're talking birth.

My dad is 6' 3". Do they still do that thing where they double your height at a certain age to predict your adult height? I was going to be 6' 4". I'm not close. My pediatrician would say, "Don't worry, you're seventeen years old, you're still growing..." (I was not still growing.) I was the tallest & youngest in kindergarten, but haven't been the tallest since. (Except lying down.

- and no nose jokes, thank you.)

So, you got the dark hair, he got the height. You could be grey AND short (but you're just short

) Not sure what they do in terms of determining height but I guess i'm about right. However, i'm taller than my mother and my dad isn't much taller than I am. Sasquatch

Lying down, eh? Is that before or after the slow leak?

Your nose is big?

Actually, I was blond as a kid. I looked like Charlie in the original Wonka movie, hairstyle and all.

It was the Seventies. I'm just glad I never had a bowl cut or a curtain cut.

The bowl cut is as horrendous as my 80s feathered bangs

That was a wretched time.

I had the bowl cut in kindergarten.

Awful.

WelshWitchPMD · #40 06-29-2005, 06:09 PM

'Twas a scary, scary time, but all is great now.

It is a scary time. Glad she turned out good. Sara was in the hospital at birth a total of 45 days. She had a minor eye alignment problem we just recently discovered. 4 months of therapy, and she is basically cured!
