Things I've Learned From Raising Little Boys

Boys Don't Stop Moving From the moment they come bouncing into your bed in the morning until they pass out at bedtime, boys go. Sometimes it seems like they have only two speeds -- fast and faster. This means that your toddler could be sitting on the floor playing with trucks one minute and when you turn your head, he will be skydiving off the dining room table. When he darts ahead on the sidewalk, you'll be terrified that he's going to run headlong into traffic and your heart will stop regularly as he nearly misses crashing into people and trees. This fear only rises as he becomes old enough to ride a bike, scooter, and skateboard. He may not ever slow down, but you will learn to pick up the pace...And when you have to completely different boys, your first born who played everything out in his head before acting and the second child is 100% balls to the wall, act now think later.....WOW. And we all know a 3 year old just isn't capable of doing everything that his 6 year old brother and friends are doing. Oh but that doesn't stop him from attempting these things. That is when the ER visits come into play. I see many in our future, and so did Keenan's Ortho doctor who politely stated that he thought he would be seeing a lot of this boy. God help us The past six years I have tried to enjoy/cherish every minute that has seemly traveled at the speed of light, just like little boys.
