I sure have a longing for a little "pink" in our future but I wouldn't trade the "blue" for anything.

After my first son, I thought I had experienced it all - until I had my second (he's the one who just graduated with a degree in Industrial & Systems Engineering - should have seen the writing on the wall!!!) and life as I knew it was no more! <br /><br />But now that my two are grown (do we really ever grow up), I can honestly say God knew what he was doing when he gave me boys! They are the ones who teasingly (at least I think teasingly) remind me they will be the ones to choose my nursing home!! But they have such tender hearts underneath all that exterior "boy" facade! And I am incredibly blessed.<br /><br />Oh the tales I could regale all you mother's of sons with ... but then I would ruin the surprise as you discover these places with your own sons! Enjoy the ride! It is so worth it! (My two sons are now 27 and 24 and a great delight - and they often quote: "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my Mommy you'll be." Doesn't get much better!!<br /><br />Blessings to you one and all!<br /><br />LAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252390716871521856.post-28496572781012038392011-07-20T13:32:42.600-07:002011-07-20T13:32:42.600-07:00Yes, your description of little boys is to the T! ...Yes, your description of little boys is to the T! I have 2 of them and it makes for very interesting days. My mom is one of 3 girls and I have a sister (and a little brother) and my boys are ALL BOY and have done every little thing you describe in the post. My friends have little girls who sit and color, help mommy cook and are so good at playing by themselves quietly. I try to explain how different and hard at times it is to them, but I think to myself, they will never understand until they have a little boy of their own. <br />And the headbutt thing. WOW, there have been times that my eyes are burning with tears from the accidental headbutt and I want to scream bad words b/c it hurts SO bad, but they are just trying to love me in their little way. I keep telling myself that there will be a time when raising boys is easier (no hormones, easier as teenagers, etc) but for now, it is a very physical, energy draining time, but I wouldn't trade them for anything!!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03350384311101479466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252390716871521856.post-71281410178464886612011-07-20T07:38:56.074-07:002011-07-20T07:38:56.074-07:00OMIGOSH! When did you start spying on my house wit...OMIGOSH! When did you start spying on my house with my own webcam?<br /><br />Just a heads-up on what's coming next: Swashbuckling from handy household items WILL break the shower head, tear the towel rack off the wall and leave a hole in the drywall, and leave your curtain rods permanently cock-eyed.<br /><br />Also, the anatomical thing? We just hit the 7th birthday and there is no end in sight.Laurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120847492230531939noreply@blogger.com
