Boys

Aren't boys just good to have around? Speaking as the mother of girls, I fully appreciate the differences in the genders. Our nephew Layton and our friend Caden (both full-blown country boys) continually open my eyes to things that our girl-household is not familiar with :)


So besides the fact that we love them and can't live without them, these are just a few good reasons to have a boy around (big or little):

--Boys will kill spiders and bugs for you.
--Boys will cook out on the grill and mess with the fire.
--Boys help you see the gun/sword possibilities in any toy, stick, or rock.
--Boys add a new meaning to "We shouldn't throw things in the house."
--Boys can fix things that need fixing...and even some that don't.
--Boys will jump off of things that are twice their height.
--Boys have no qualms about peeing off the porch.
--Boys have an innate knowledge of car sounds and crude noises.
--Boys are charmers...even when you have no intention of being charmed.
--Boys are meant to be outside and dirty.
And my favorite right now...
--Boys are good chaffeurs :)
