Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails....NOT

Living with boys is like running through the jungle - you never know what to expect. My boys are a joy and yet, they hate pink! I've learned to like blue though it's been a tough transition. At times, I think my house should be painted blue, but then again, I don't have to tell ANYONE that boys live here. They already know.


What are some of the joys of having boys? Oh, my friend, there are numerous benefits.

  1. If boys are outside and have to pee, it's on. (They could actually live in a house with no bathroom!)
  2. Boys are not modest- They can pee and wave at the same time
  3. Only half of the grass in the backyard needs cutting - four wheeler tires can eat the grass right off the ground
  4. Walking around in boxers after 6pm is an automatic, just as shirtless summers and "long john" winters
  5. Boys don't stress when they: miss the commode, have stinky feet, or need to pass gas- (Let 'em lose a baseball, and it's worse than a girl misplacing Ken, even with a box full of Barbies)
  6. Give him a football, he plays for a day- Teach him football and he argues for lifetime
  7. Boys can make a game out of anything...a pillow, a rock, a rope (Keep away, bet you can't take this from me...)
  8. Boogers, burps, and gas are part of the masculine side and are to be celebrated...loud and proud
  9. Boys like dirt-they forget moms don't
  10. Getting something on their clothing is like a battle scar- the story has to be told
  11. Xbox and Playstation 2 are necessities - without them, they can not live
  12. Spiderman and Hulk are more important than ANYONE in Washington
  13. Do not, I repeat DO NOT talk bad about their favorite team or any member on it- you are risking your life if you do
  14. Last, boys don't have to go to the bathroom in pairs- to them, it doesn't matter if they visit the bathROOM at all...(see #1)

I love my two boys, and I am grateful that I didn't have daughters! My boys girlfriends are a couple of moody ones, and I have no patience for it! LOL!

I agree totally! I have 2 boys and they are driving me crazy. Slowly, but they doing it!
