Holy moly, 5'2" in 4th grade?! That's humongous! Um...I mean, no it's perfectly normal. You just...got your growthspurt...early... I was around 4 ft. in 4th grade...I was the shortest in the grade, so I could squeeze through traffic jams in the hallway real easy.
Yep, I was tall all right. I was taller than my teacher. I was also a skinny thing, could've used me to get stuff out of the sewer, LOL.
5'2 in 4th grade? I'm only just above that now and I'm 22!!! Some people get all the height . Oh well, good things come in small packages .
My husband is 5'11" and I'm 4'11" (and 3/4 of an inch.) And American kitchen shelving is designed for people with his height, not mine. I hate being short. And when I was 22 I weighed about 100 lbs. That's been creeping up over the years, especially after I hit the age of 35 (which I'm long past). You're right about that Allie. My daughter is 5'2", a small package carrying a good thing due about the middle of August. They expect a baby girl.
So very exciting, Lynet! You'll have to tell us when she arrives. I stopped growing after the sixth grade, pretty much, if it makes anyone feel better. They predicted I'd be six feet tall, and I'm just under 5'7". And no longer skinny, sigh. Witch Baby seems to be taking after me. She's approaching 5 feet and she's only 8 years old. Her daddy at 5'8" is the tallest member of his immediate family; I'm the shortest of mine (I'm taller than my father in law, LOL). I expect Witch Baby will end up pretty much smack dab in the middle of tall and short.
