Growth

Tonight, as I was helping Sam wash up during his shower, he had a moment of inspiration.

I asked him to lift a foot toward me so I could scrub it. He obeyed and said, "Mom, your feet are bigger than mine." I agreed with him. He still has very slender, small feet for a boy. Then he said, "It's because people grow slowly. We are just like trees that way."

I had never compared a human to a tree before, but I suppose he has a point!
