Way back in January of 2016 I wrote a post called Up the Nose: The Lost Milestone. In that post I discussed putting stuff up the nose as a lost milestone for children. How many French fries fit in a nose? How do you make a cheerio disappear? Anyway, I can’t say that too much… Continue reading A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter U for Up the Nose

A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter T for Things I’ve said

A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter S for Strange Games
Sometimes I find my boys playing the strangest games. Sometimes they convince me to join in on these strange games, and my role in the games is usually the most bizarre!

A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter R for Race
I am sure this is a sibling thing, this making everything into a race. We have contents, competitions, first place, second place and a battle over who gets what title.

A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter P for Princesses
My boys were almost 5 and 2 when we visited Walt Disneyland. The 5 year old was all about the princesses: Bell, Cinderella, Snow White, Ariel, Tiana, and etcetera. I wasn’t sure what the sudden interest was. I guess my mom intuition was hovering on naïve. Anyway, he was all smiles and hugs with these… Continue reading A – Z Blogging Challenge, Raising Boys: The Penis Chronicles presents the Letter P for Princesses

The progression of career choices starts young. Somewhere around three my older boy started trying to decide his adult career.

Over the last few years I have learned an amazing amount about Marvel characters and the Marvel storyline. I have also learned a number of things about Star Wars and the draw of the lightsaber.
