How old your boy now? I bet he's really so cute. Thanks for this post! It's very inspiring for moms out there. -Therese Your baby boy is really adorable.

I've wondered what raising girls is like (4 boys, no girls - unless you count the pets). I don't know what I'd do with dainty little things? That's left to calmer mom's than I. You asked what the advantage is? Why brave adventure of course! You have your own little brave hero right in your very arms! He can slay the dragon, scare the monster, defeat the enemy and keep the bad guys away while dad is at work. His sisters should be proud - they have such a brave "prince" in their midst, to rescue them. You are raising tomorrow's leader, defender, husband and dad. If he thought about it, before he did it, he'd never do it. No dragon would be slayed, monster frightened, enemy thwarted, bad guys kept at bay or princesses rescued. And yes - it's exhausting! While mothers of girls earn their grey hairs in ways I'll never fully know; mothers of boys earn their grey through emergency room visits, torn clothing that they just bought, energy that never seems to end and idea's that you (or they) can never fully explain. (Yes eggs really do explode in the microwave!) Brave adventure - your in for a great one! Very funny! I’ve wondered what raising girls is like (4 boys, no girls – unless you count the pets).

HOWEVER he is the most fun and handsome and imaginative and inventive boy i have met, ever. i love this bundle of legs and elbows and kisses and hugs until death and back. but i have realized that Franklin has the innate ability to know where his little body ends and where the innocently dangerous (fill in the blank) begins, and i thank God for it multiple times a day. and i thank Him for giving me this new and wonderful creature. i have 4: b, g, b, g. but Franklin is the only one who will make a living off of destroying and rebuilding. he will either be a demolitions expert or James Bond as far as i can tell! love your boy and let him RUN! are you sure you weren’t talking about my son Franklin? he doesn’t go after anything. he THROWS himself at EVERYTHING! he’s 2 1/2 now and runs full tilt at whatever it is that is on his little beautiful mind. i wince and cry with relief when he misses corners by 1/2 an inch or stops just shy of a bloody forehead (his 1 1/2 yo sister beat him to stitches)! i almost can’t take the heart attacks!

Lol My favorite was going in to have a popcorn kernel removed from a nostril. No one warned me that those things swell, when in moist little nosies. It has become one of their favorite stories to entertain company with. Those oddities are almost a badge of honor in boyworld!
