Someone with more testosterone (see, you really aren't becoming a "dude"). So I'm told -- I only have girls myself. <BR/><BR/>Another thing I'm told is that when it's all said and done, and they're all grown up, sons love their moms with a very special bond.

As I was letting my 9-mo old cio last night (and despising every minute of it) I had to remind myself that parenthood is full of painful experiences that help our kids to grow. UGH. I dread the teenage years, when a hug doesn't do the trick anymore.Musings of a Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09854615817486354491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18378633.post-1151915612427637152006-07-03T03:33:00.000-05:002006-07-03T03:33:00.000-05:00We had a similar outburst this evening including ...We had a similar outburst this evening including phrases like," You're ruining my life," and, "I won't watch any fireworks with you!" (We had purchased a few fireworks for Tuesday's celebration this afternoon.) Ours was over asking him to pick up his toys before going to bed. Are they swoping 'gotcha phrases' or just getting creative??? Or is someone putting our boys in acting classes?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18378633.post-1151904733261375802006-07-03T00:32:00.000-05:002006-07-03T00:32:00.000-05:00I think they all get overpowered by the emotions a...I think they all get overpowered by the emotions and how wide ranging those emotions can be - especially as they grow.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there.

I hate that they have stopped mimicking my every move becuase they are finding thier own personalities now. I love that right now I am the cool aunt that they don't mind hangin' with, even when thier friends are around. I hate that one day I will be old and uncool to them, just like thier parents. You seem like you are doing a great job of handling the ups and downs both.Bttrfly1976https://www.blogger.com/profile/03245444781202450754noreply@blogger.com
