Boys!

What are little boys made of?
What are little boys made of?
Snips and snails
And puppy-dogs' tails,
That's what little boys are made of

I was reminded of this little poem this week - oh boys! Boys don't know the meaning of I don't care how warm it may be it is still winter, you can not wear shorts and a t-shirt outside to play and put a coat on, no matter how old boys are they still and always laugh at burping and farting noises, boys are rough and they like to wrestle, boys run and have so much energy, they love to fight, they love Star Wars and Indiana Jones, no matter what age, they love having making camps out of pillows and blankets, they love all things Lego, they love Disney,  they will find the one spot in the grass that has a little bit of mud and bring it all into the house, they love to jump in puddles, they love to scratch and they love to laugh immensly. They love soccer and volleyball!

Boys - they are so sweet and loving, they hold onto their momma's hands, they love to hug, big bear hugs, they love to cuddle up to watch a movie, they love little babies and are so sweet to them, they love to twirl hair and to read books, they love to laugh at each other and they love, LOVE to play with each other and be there with each other. Even on days that they aren't getting along, they are lonely without the other, they give the best birthday kisses and hugs a girl could ask for, they could say the sweetest thing when you are having the roughest day and they can give the best hugs when you are loosing someone dear to you, they know how to make me pull my hair out and the next minute LOVE them to death - hugs and squeezes.

Boys - MY BOYS - I love them to death and I couldn't imagine my life without them. My goal is to make them great human beings who love and are kind to one another, who are successful in whatever they may choose, to continue to love them through all ups and downs of life - if I can do that and if I can give them a love for God and family - then I have succeeded.
