Last night I commented to Greg on how much our ten (almost eleven) year old daughter has grown.

I had Hanna stand shoulder to shoulder with me as she is closing the gap—and quickly.

Ellie piped up, “Oh, do you know who has really grown?”

Hanna?

“Leo.”

Ellie: Leo has grown so much in the past few months. It’s unbelievable.

She went on, “Leo used to be this tall (randomly slicing the air with a sideways hand with a six to eight inch variance between chops) but now he’s like this tall.” (hand slices moving up as she climbs onto the ottoman for affect)

Before I could ask, “He used to be shorter than Adam, Bree and Chase but now he’s like way taller. It happened so fast.”

Ellie, who the hell are you talking about?

“Leo. Leo, you know, from the show Lab Rats?”
