A Mother's Dilemma

When a mother discovers her son has shrunk three pant sizes and two shirt sizes it is a bit uncomfortable. Luckily when Aaron left to travel overseas for a year, he had just a few pounds he could spare. The realization is that I am sure it is a combination of a different diet, being more active at times (like a week of constant downhill skiing), but also having a little less appetite at other times.

So here is how we are accustomed to seeing our son. These are clothes he took with him from the USA.

Now here is an outfit he tried on at a store in Slovakia on Monday, February 22, 2016.

While he didn't decide to buy that one, he did go out the next day and purchase this...

It was good to see the pictures and know he's not down to skin and just bones! As a friend said, it probably says more about our American diet and how we can learn something from others. 

Almost down to 100 days until his return, and I can't wait to squeeze him no matter what size he is!
