Well readers, this week it is Babble that has our hearts melting with What It Really Means To Be a Little Boy’s Mama.
For our sons that will someday become grown men, writer Michelle Horton pretty much says it all.
Here are a few passages we seriously relate to along with some adorable shots of some of our favorite boys in their big brother shirts:
“Being a little boy’s mama means always going, moving, running, energy. It means muddy shoes, bandaged legs, and breath-catching stunts that nearly stop your heart.” (Shown: Kids Play Big Brother T shirt)
“It means playing certain games and watching certain movies that you really have no interest in, and yet still enjoy seeing through the ninja-superhero-karate perspective because it’s his perspective.” (Shown: Super Big Brother T shirt)
“It means finding rocks hidden around the house.” (Shown: Dig In Big Brother T shirt)
