DOVE FAMILY

This past weekend, Matthew had his annual physical with his doctor. After taking all the numbers and the usual chit-chat, our docotor announced that Matthew's weight and height is at the point where he no longer has to use a booster. She did say that each car is different, especially those with benches in the back. She told us to measure him using the seat belt but in most cars he does not have to use a booster. Matthew's face of course lit up and I just sat there tears in my eyes. My baby is a big boy. I know we say it when they start walking, out of diapers, first day of daycare, first day of kindergarten. But when they are legally big enough to not have to use a booster...now thats big. Thats a sign of a big boy. Thats a sign that a momma's baby is growing. At least we know that we have the option of using the booster as long as the seat belt sits correctly across his shoulder.
