“Raising boys is an extreme sport. That’s why I wear workout clothes every day.”
That’s a lighthearted quote from the blog Simply Well Balanced, but it sure has a lot of truth in it! Raising a son is a good way to rack up the steps on your fitness watch. But let me affirm you— if you’re letting your boy be wild– you’re probably doing it right.
Let him run around like crazy outside. Show him how to make mud pies. Watch him do tricks on his bicycle. Go fishing together, and let him hold the fish while you snap a picture.
Sure, it can be exhausting. But if your son ends the day making muddy footprints across your floor– I bet he’ll also have a smile on his face.
