The Boy Chronicles....sigh

"Ma, you do know that one day you're going to have to give my sister a sibling", said my "Daughter" Tiffany( yes, I'm using your government today)... Tiff was one of my 1st peer leaders along with many others who adopted me as their Ma! I just looked at her and said yeah okay... Who would've guessed that years later( my Mooda Pie is now 8) Tiff's words would ring true.

 I now have a little boy who is 1 but its like he's been here before. This little kid is the true definition of a little rugged BOY!!! This kid has done so much in his short life span of 1 whole year.. SMH

He's already conquered rolling in the powder, digging in hair grease, stitches at 9months and being put on baby laughing gas, climbing out of his bed and to top the list cutting his hair!!! YES, he cut his hair. Which by the way could've been ugly because he used his dad's facial hair razor. Ask me no questions, I tell you NO lies~~~ This is a true story!!! LOL

I remember watching my mom go thru hell and back with my three brothers. My brothers were rugged too. I guess my son is following in their footsteps( but I pray a covering over him that he does NOT go thru some of the extra stuff they encountered).

I always ask his dad," what kind of kid were you", and although he's a very smart, well spoken, intelligent MAN, my mind still wonders about his boyhood!! LOL You know how you look at some guys and you'r like, yeah he's far from innocent, YUP his dad fits the mold so I know it has rubbed off on our son. When I tell him about the silly antics he's gotten into throughout the day, he gets a kick out of it. And no matter how many times I say,"Stop it son", "Son don't do that", remove him from an activity, it does not phase him. He has now mastered nodding his head YES. And to be only 1, this lil dude nods in time. "Son, I'm going to need for you to stop and sit down and listen", in return he nods YES... Are you serious little guy?? I can't take it.

Boys and little girls are definitely cut from a different stock/bred. My Moo was so nice and calm and she still is... But this lil joker, I think I need a manual! He's such the dotting son when dad is around but when it's the two of us, I swear I need a drink..

I LOVE my children and I honestly believe God never gives us anymore than what we can bare.. BUT Lord, if you're listening, Help this sister OUT..

Signed,
 My Son will be the reason I drink
