'Child' no longer fits. He has outgrown the word, both physically and mentally. He's a boy, determined to become his own man. Boundaries set by his parents are being probed and pushed; he increasingly feels the need to stake out his own territory. Only uncertainty holds him back. But that will come with experience, that ever expanding encounter with the wider world. More and more his world and his place in it.
In short he's growing up.
As he should.
Happy birthday Cian.
