Raising Little Boys


If you know anything about me, you know that I adore my life with all boys.  Not because I reject the notion of a little girl to call my own, but rather because I believe whole heartedly in this thing called fate.  And for me, in this moment, it is two little chubby-armed boys I call my beauties.  Because I love what I have, including all the Batman marathons and baseball practices.  And in the spirit of life as a mother with twice the boy fun...

You Know you are a Mom to Little Boys When....
  1. You have a rule as such: "No peeing on your brother in the bathtub"
  2. When you meet a little boy, you give him a high five
  3. You have 213 hot wheels, to be exact
  4. You know all the Avengers and Justice League dudes.  Spider-Man is an honorary buddy of the Avengers, everyone knows that.
  5. You call everyone "Dude"
  6. You can count on the toilet seat being up about 99.1% of the time
  7. Wrestling with Daddy is an absolute daily occurrence in your household. 
  8. Your necklaces have become slings for launching Batman & Robin 
  9. All furniture in your household has been damaged, repaired and draw on.  In that order.
  10. Chasing your running child is your cardio.
I embrace every waking moment of said life.  
Because from the moment I knew my growing bellies were boys, I knew I'd have a life of tough and rough love.  It was my destiny to have at the bare minimum, two karate-chopping, ninja-hiding rowdy boys that will turn into loyal men and hopefully happy souls.  But for today, I will indulge in my boy crazy world and all of its perks. 

Smile on Mamas!
