Your height is a matter both of genetics and environment. Although your husband may be short, he may come from a family with tall people in it, whose genetic material may resurface in your son. Then there is your genetic material. If your family has tall people in it, their genetic material may be passed on to your son. Both of these would help your son be taller than his dad. And there is environment: there has been a steady increase in the average size of people in first and second world countries because of the improvement in diet. Clothing designed for an average woman 100 years ago is now too small to fit the average 13-year-old girl. Under these circumstances it is normal for a son to be taller than his father.

(I am assuming here that your son is the biological son of your husband. There would be nothing remarkable about your son being bigger than your husband if your husband is a second marriage, or if the son is adopted.)
