Boy to Man

Stepson number 2 was through today to go to the football with his Dad. While waiting on a lift back home I quickly snapped him as I realised the next time I see him, he will be 16 (his birthday is while we are on holiday).

I need to program my brain to start calling him by his real name and not his childhood nickname, Dink. Mr WeeL and I appear to be the only people who still use this and it is starting to annoy him. Unknown to us others stopped using this name about 5 years ago! Oooops!

I am also praying he stops growing now as at 6ft 3 ins I get a crick in my neck looking up at him!
