My oldest son has always been small for his age. He fell off the growth chart for height in pre-kindergarten and never hopped back on. We all used to joke that he "didn't exsist" since his height and weight didn't chart. We had to put him through a series of test and evaluations over the years to determine a cause but nothing was ever found. He was simply short and we were fine with that.He had a physical today for fall x-country and we found out that he is back on the charts! He's at the very bottom (51 inches for height, 60 pounds for weight puts him below the 3rd percentile but he's there. I never thought I would be so happy about a meaningless growth chart. Maybe he'll hit 100 pounds on day afterall and won't have to sit on a phone book when he takes drivers ed in a few years. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2Hzim5x
