WHY I LOVE MY BOYS
dirt + clean bodies & clothes = giggles
rain + dirt = mud, which = oodles of fun
runny noses + mud = gross things mom can't stand
nasty, dirty things + 3 boys always = another shower
clean fun...what could be better?
Okay, so the equation doesn't really add up, but I tell you, the more the kids do "typical boy" things, I find myself laughing more than freaking out. So what's another load of laundry or another shower for them? I keep thinking that someday these kids aren't going to be asking for me to do the simple things like read them a book, hold them, or wrestle with them. On the other hand, why is it that boys have to get dirty...like everyday? Is there some kind of mental thing where they need to feel the dirt in between their toes or something? Well, I guess the point of all of this is..... sit down, relax & enjoy my kids. A major lesson already learned in 2008.

Boy will be boys, there's no way around it!
I'm scared to enter the dirty world of boys...Blake is getting closer everyday! How do you do it?
I loved your blog! It is so true and we mothers of 3 boys it certainly rings true! I have definiitely learned to grab my camera alot more often now than with my first boy instead of getting all upset because he had yet again got all muddy or made mud in my yard and wipped it all over my sliding glass window...of course right after I had cleaned it! Makes you really stop and enjoy life having boys as they discover everything in it!
