telling your boys (including daddy) to just call you “Repeat” instead.

being a boy mom means you have body guards, Chauffeur, plumber, jar openers, spider killers, diaper changers, babysitters, remote getters, door openers, taste testers, & your #1 fans FOREVER

Your Son strips off down to pants as soon as he gets in the door.

You find yourself saying to your two young sons “please don’t hammer your pe**s’s with the toy hammers” as they are both sat under the table with their toy tool boxes doing just that!

I just love reading this page! ? x

I love this. Thank you for sharing with me. It is hard for me to watch my boys grow up sometimes. They really are my life and so special in their own unique ways.

1. You have to look up at your 10 year old when scolding him.
2. You think about buying stock in room deodorizers.
3. You need a nap at noon even after your boy outgrows them.
4. You buy dress pants too long and become a master at lengthening pants hems.
5. You need a second refrigerator in the garage even though you only have one growing boy.

They have such great big hearts and minds and dreams. They are my inspiration and perhaps, if I`m lucky, I am theirs. A favourite memory is dropping my son off for the first day of Kindergarten and him turning to me, and blowing me a kiss…I`ll never forget such a precious moment. He continues to be a charmer…I am sooooo blessed to have many more memories, special to each son. This is our gift back for all the hard work that is required to do the job that is the hardest in the world, but the most rewarding.

You’ve walked into your 2 year old’s bedroom and seen “snow” from a baby powder explosion.

You’ve cleaned lotion and body wash off the windows where you son was trying to “help clean.”
