Exacerbated by watching Drillbit Taylor, a movie about odd ball, nerdy, geeky soon-to-be freshman in high school, my son proclaimed today..."I HAVE ARMPIT HAIR!"
He then proceeded to ask, "Should I be proud, mom?"
Exactly how does a mother of an 11-year old, soon-to-be entering 6th grade in the fall, respond?
"What do you think?" "Are you proud?"
He then excitedly hopped around the room, dashed into the bathroom to "find" his newly discovered arm pit hairs (although truth be known, I'm pretty sure he had "discovered" them a year or so ago as well - but had since forgotten), thumb and forefinger grasping his new finds he emerged from the bathroom to show me.
Another day in the history of...puberty.
