H is 15. His growth took off over the past year and he's man-sized now. It's freakish how quickly that happened and yet, it's extremely useful, too, since I'm only 5'3" and getting all my old lady traits in place. When heavy stuff needs to get moved, I can call on our son. When something on the high shelf needs to come down, I can call on our son. All his usefulness is a good balance for his more surly teenager personality traits that have also revealed themselves to new levels in the past year. Ha!
But seriously, he's a good kid. He truly loves the Lord and seeks to grow in faith all the time. And he has worked at being more servant-hearted than ever before. He is usually the first to volunteer when I need an extra job done around the house and he doesn't typically complain about it. I love this attitude.
