My Boys

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on June 15, 2011

Hello there! Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by. If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to my RSS feed for updates. Come back soon!

Playing. Jumping. Running. Making swords and guns out of sticks. Defying gravity.

Sparring. Wrestling. Climbing. Digging. Building. Imagining. Creating.

I can hardly keep up with my boys. I don’t want to, really. After all, they are little men.

They are soldiers in training. Little warriors.

They will someday be husbands. Knights willing to rescue their princess. The providers and protectors of families.

Someday they may become fathers. Heroes in the eyes of their children.

What a treasure I’ve been given in my boys.

For only a little while.

Be Sociable, Share!

Love this. There is nothing quite like having boys, is there?

You have such a gorgeous family! I only have one and I’m quite partial to all of the above boy activities

I have two sons so totally understand but will say….my daughter sure did talk our ear off when she was little (oh, I miss that!). I love your line “They will someday be husbands. Knights willing to rescue their princess. The providers and protectors of families.” I’m always telling my 13yr old how some day he’ll be in charge of a whole unit and how much responsibility he’ll have….and he’s still planning on having kids LOL
