Is it normal for an adult tooth to grow behind a milk tooth?

Q.
My 6 year old son still has all of his milk teeth, he noticed a slight wobble on his botton left front tooth last week, since then the wobble has gone but his adult tooth has started to grow behind his milk teeth. Is this ok?
A.
Yes this is perfectly normal.
