"Boys are found everywhere—on top of, underneath, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around or jumping to. Mothers love them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers tolerate them, adults ignore them and Heaven protects them. A boy is Truth with dirt on its face, Beauty with a cut on its finger, Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair and the Hope of the future with a frog in its pocket."

Not So Fast....
4,380days ago, my first boy was born. Had I known what a sweet, sweet boy he'd be, I would have had four more just like him.
(Wait a minute.)
He pulled a fast one on us today and woke up as this morning as a 12 year-old. Not cool at all, dude.
Not cool.
Here's what he looked like just yesterday-
And here's what he looks like today-
Only 525,600 minutes until he turns 13.
But who's counting?
I'm a busy mom of five boys who is sure to lose my kung fu grip on sanity at any given moment. My future consists of many goals, dreams & visions. At the top of my list is my overwhelming desire to raise my boys on a farm. Chickens, goats, cows...it's MY fairytale. Writing is my passion and clears my cloudy head. Welcome to my world. I hope you'll stay awhile.
I remember that hospital outfit like it was yesterday. Love that kid so much!
