My boys are getting old enough that I’m realizing our interactions and activities are shifting, and I’m trying to figure out what they are and how to continue to connect with them. I love this story and find it encouraging—a great model to follow. Thank you!
Friend, this is so beautiful! I love the way you write about your boys and the way your words bring them each to life in their own, unique way. You teach me so much, in the way of writing and in the way of mothering. ♥️
Oh, I love this. I'm going to have a third boy soon (with a four year gap between the younger two and six between the oldest and youngest), and my boys love Lego. My youngest now, who will be the middle, sounds similar to your middle. It made my heart ache 💛
I know I don’t need to tell you this, but there are so many sweet, heart-warming moments mixed in with the quarrels and chaos of 3 boys. Also, I don’t know what I’m doing most of the time 🤪🙃
I am excited for you and your family to meet your newest boy❤️🥰
