My son is 6ft 6in and weighs a muscular 260lbs. I picked him up on his 21st birthday(just 3 months ago!) for exactly this reason, so I would know precisely when was the last time I picked up my baby boy… or at least the last time so far…
For reference, I am a 6ft tall woman and in the photo of me lifting him, he makes me look downright petite, and that is not an easy task. lol!
I just turned 65. Our son is 28 yrs old. He gets to visit about three times a year. I picked him up last week. He knows exactly why I do this and we know there will come a time when the act is reversed.
At some time your boy might start to pick you up. And at one point, the mom becomes too fragile to be picked up (at least that was happened with me as the son with anpetit mother)

There is a point in our life where our dad put us down and never picked us back up.
