The Curious Wildflower

Embrace the Chaos...

Boys are just different!  As I boy mom I have the pleasure in wrestling with my sons, and the responsibility to raise well-justed and kind men.

Logan was born in 2005.   Logan was a ‘little‘ unexpected.  Yet, he stole my heart and changed my life forever.  Oliver was born in 2011. Oliver is a gentle child, introvert by nature.  Beware, when he feels comfortable with you, he does not stop talking.  I was convinced he was a little girl and was broken-hearted when I found out he was a boy.

It turns out, I am much better at being a boy mom than I would even be to a little girl.  They faff far too much and who wants tea parties when you can play cowboys and crooks?
