growth spurt

I am a short person. There is no denying that when it comes to height, my children are not getting it from me. Imagine my surprise today when we met some friends for a movie and it was noticeable that he had grown since last we saw his friend. I really had a hard time believing it. I mean, he's been sleeping more and eating more, but I think all that might be because he had a growth spurt. I could not get over it. So, this evening during bath time I asked him "Dallas, how did you get so tall?" He quickly answered "It's easy Mommy, I just asked God for it."
