being a boy mom

Being a boy mom means...

• Navigating with the "car cart" at the grocery store.
  
• Keeping your eyes peeled for garbage trucks when you drive around town.
  
• Potty training for 5 and a half months.
• You don't put a toy truck away, you "vroom it" to its parking space.
  
• Reading stories about cars, trucks, trains, and spiders.
  
• Reminding that we don't scream or yell at the dinner table or in the car or in the grocery store...
  
• Getting hugged around the neck so hard it almost chokes me. (But I love it!)
• Being asked "Can I say gross? It's not an 'ucky word?"
  
• Squeezing the water out of an alligator after bath time every night.
• Tucking a boy, a bunny, a blankie, and a plastic spider into bed.
• Washing wet, muddy clothes late at night.
