What it really means to be a little boy's mama

The line about the deep voice makes me laugh. My two year old can do a fake deep voice. He does it when he's pretending on the phone. It's the funniest thing to hear this little 2 year old deep voice say "hello?!"

My 4 yo has been doing this for quite a while it cracks me up.

So sweet, but it makes me so sad. My first baby boy will be 4 on Monday and the other will be 2 in 2 weeks.

As a mom of three girls some of these happen with girls as well. DD#2 is very rough and tumble and constantly has bruises everywhere. She wears superhero shirts and wants to watch similar shows on Netflix.

But I know it will somehow be completely different when I hold this baby boy. I'm still trying to come to terms with all that will be different and how exactly to raise a little boy versus how I've been raising these girls.

It is hard enough when everyone thinks we kept trying until we got a boy... And therefore makes my girls (currently only DD#1 notices) feel less than adequate. Knowing I will feel differently about Rykor makes it hard because I don't want the girls to grow up believing we didn't want them in any way.

Sorry for the tangent... Momma's emotional today!!!

"Being a little boy’s mama means always going, moving, running, energy. It means muddy shoes, bandaged legs, and breath-catching stunts that nearly stop your heart." That's where we are these days. Oh the energy.

That was all really sweet.

Now I am crying and smiling. To think that this baby boy inside me will one day be a man and have his own family is just. WOW!

I'm not in any emotional state to read this. My first born and only son is preparing to leave for college at the end of the month. I'm a wreck!

All the feels is right.

But also. I dont necessarily agree with "boys will belong to their wives and girls belong to their mothers" thing. I feel like its the opposite. It seems that most of the time the wife joins/spends more time with the husbands family more so than the other way around.

Ugh. The facial hair part just killed me. He is not even here yet but I am sad about him growing up. I'm in big trouble!
