Boys 2 Men Introduction

video
I am going to post a series of thoughts about interacting and understanding young boys.  I’m no expert, but I’ve noticed some things along this crazy ride of being a mom to 3 little men.  So, in case it could save someone else some head-scratching I’ll share them.

I watched, fascinated, as my first two kids, a girl and a boy, turned one.  Before this milestone, my daughter had held a baby doll sweetly on her shoulder and loved on it.  My son had made that “vroooom!” sound while pushing a car with his hand.  I knew boys and girls were basically different, but I didn’t know how to respond and interact with my son based on this knowledge.   

Interesting note: as I was thinking about these things, I was intrigued that the same lessons I’m learning about my sons are the lessons I’m learning as I grow to love and respect my husband more.  So, in honor of the Respect Code that is intuitive to men, I will use Respect language in these posts.  I hope you will be able to translate what these things mean to your Men as well as your Boys.


Welcome to my wanderings…

Enjoyed seeing your men do push-ups...especially the one that fell on his nose. =)

(Now y'all have us all curious WHAT commercial y'all are talking about. =)

Yes, I too am learning about boys and how they think. Each year I am learning more about respecting my Sweetheart. What a fun journey. =)

THANK YOU for all your sweet comments, thoughts and prayers, and hugs! =) I need them!

Blessings,

I don't even know what commercial he would have been talking about - he just had that sound in his voice that told me I didn't want it said on a video! :)
