greywolfe:
Ah Sam, always with the important questions.
So, Marten doesn't look that perturbed about this idea...I guess he wants his tri-Dads?
techkid:
Fathers Day is going to run up a pretty expensive bill...
This arc is coming along pretty nicely. Should I brace for impact now?

Puberty is marked by rapid growth. Also, is Sam still 12? How long has it been since her introduction/since her age was last stated explicitly?
In the last frame she looks marginally taller than in the second-to-last. It might not be intentional, but I imagine her standing on her toes to better drive the point home to her soon-to-be-stepbrother.
snubnose:
Sam knows her priorities ! :-D

I was actually full-grown before I hit twelve--I maxed out my height in fifth grade at age 11 and never grew any taller (wider, on the other hand...). Granted, I'm only 5'0"... but I do know I wasn't the tallest girl in my fifth grade class. I had friends who still managed to be at least a head taller than me. Between the earliest puberty age (9, usually) through the end of high school, it's pretty tough to establish a "normal" height for a kid because they all hit that/those major growth spurt(s) at different points and different intensities.
