Boys will be Boys...

...and Carson for sure knows how to play like a boy.

Look at his face, with all that dirt and even a more dirtier nose, Carson smile couldn't be bigger!

What is it about boys and the more nose they make, the stinker the better, and having dirt under their finger nails, the better?
Carson is like a dirt magnet, once we are outside, right to my flower beds he goes, digging in the dirt with his cars; making car sounds and trails through the flowers. Or he gets his balls, rather it's the basketball, baseball, or golf balls. He loves them all.

Well, one day out when we were shopping, Dan thought that "his" boy needed a skateboard!

I think I am just asking for a trip to the emergency room, but Dan tells me that every boy has a skateboard...you can see that I lost the discussion.

And you can see that Carson loves it!

He is giving me the thumbs up. So far no major falls yet, yet when he does, he gets right back up and tries again. That is another trait of a boy. My girls would just cry and not want any thing else to do with it.

When people say that boys and girls act differently, I never truly understood, but now having one of each at the same age...I couldn't agree more.

So here is to my flower beds, my carpet with dirty foot prints, to my furniture that acts like a trampoline, to the rocks I find in his pants pockets or my washer, or the stair banister used as a rock wall...boys will be boys and I hope that my things can survive Carson.
