That's a tall order

Nigel has spent the last year growing 10 cm. Almost one centimeter a month - if he doesn't slow down, he'll be the same height as me when he reaches Secondary 2. And he doesn't even like eating long beans.

Actually it has only been recently (within the last year) that people have been coming up to us commenting that "your son is quite tall" and we never really thought much of it thinking that the other boys around him were roughly the same height - but now that we've started paying more attention to other kids his age, it's true, he is quite tall.

He is very skinny though - he has to put on some meat before a strong gust of win topples him over.
