Allergic To Sitting Still?

Gavyn is 7 years old and literally off the walls. This boy does not stop moving from the time he gets up to the time he goes to sleep. His feet are either on the walls, on the furniture or wherever he can seem to bounce off of. Last night he was running around like a mad man. Here is the conversation that took place once he sat down to read a book.

Me: Gavyn honey please stop running and jumping off the furniture

Gavyn: Mommy I can’t help it

Me: Why buddy

Gavyn: I’m just a kid and 7

Me: I understand that but your going to hurt yourself, just calm down

Gavyn: Mom I’m allergic to sitting still….it hurts

Me: (holding back laughing) That’s a funny thing to be allergic to… Just try

Gavyn: Ok

Two seconds later he ran from the living room into the dining room and what did he do? Bounced his feet off the door way with some little dance he did. When does this hyperness stop? I know probably never. He’s a 7 year old boy just full of it.
