What Boys Like

As a mamma of three Wild Things of the male kind, I know little about little girls. But I know a few universal truths about boys of all sizes.

They like to go rock climbing.

They like to get their feet wet.

They like to throw rocks.

They enjoy putting it into 4 wheel drive!

When they get stuck in the mud-

boys are happy to call re-inforcements to come pull them out.


Boys are great at playing make-believe. (Mmmm, this rock tastes like gelato)!

Boys aren't too concerned about the muddy laundry situations they create for their womenfolks.

They love mud and dirt.

They like dirt so much they'll take a bath in it.

... and sometimes they'll even taste it.

But even covered in dirt, they are always adorable. Now I'm off to do laundry.
Go hug your boys today!
love,

  2. He is such a beautiful little boy! I can tell you from my admittedly limited experience with a little girl that they like to do the same things for fun.

  3. The crocs!! As I've only had one child, a boy, I know nothing of girls. Boys definitely know how to pile up the laundry work though. ^-^

  5. Mary~ He was having the time of his life. Busy, busy, busy.

    KC~ Thank you! When I was a little girl, I liked to play in the dirt too- with matchbox cars.

    Rowena~ You like the crocs! :) yep, the laundry is endless.

    Mom~ "Ma che schiffo!" That is what I thought when I caught him licking the rock. Oh well, what doesn't hurt you makes you stronger... I hope.

    Dawn (Dandy)~ I heartily agree! Yay for dirt, except the laundry part.
