MORE BOY-MOM THOUGHTS...

In addition to having someone mention the concept that boys can "pick out" other moms of boys, I had someone else say to me the other day that it was too bad that I didn't even have a girl to "take the edge off". It's really making me think about the "status" of being a mom of boys.



-- I think I should get "credit" for being able to identify & name all the Rescue Heroes... ditto for the Acceleracers (Hot Wheels) drivers. Extra credit is deserved for WATCHING all of the Acceleracer movies...



-- When we're out to eat as a family, I don't have to be interrupted to take a child(ren) to the bathroom. That's DADDY WORK!!!



-- No weddings to pay for LOL!!



-- I get the snuggles. (Ever heard the phrase "Mama's Boy"??)



-- No extra PMS in the house. (Although I think that is a benefit for the boys in the house!)



--If I (fart) my kids think it's cool. >wink<



-- I'm going to have some REALLY GRATEFUL daughters-in-law, because I'm training my boys to clean up after themselves.

Oh the joys of boys.... We're surrounded by testosterone (groan).

I thought that not going down the dreaded Pink Aisle in the toys aisle is a bonus. :-)
