I have a 11 month little boy and i do know one thing about boys. The instinct to be a boy starts at a very young age. I can't wait to watch my little boy grow up to be a young man.

Thank you for your encouragement and challenges. We have three boys (6,5, and 3) - and I am so glad to hear I am not the only one who feels as if silence and sanity were things of the past. Lol! <br>The Lord is constantly reminding me to relax and enjoy them. They are boys for such as short time. I am really looking forward to getting your book. <br>I love your wisdom about raising their sights as to godly manhood. <br>My tip would be one I continue to need to do : make time to listen to them. Life can move so fast and their young voices can get rushed out the door, but I need to hear them for them to hear me.<br>Again, I thank you for sharing your insights and wisdom with us.<br>Jennifer (from Australia) I just finished listening to 'Ballistic Homeschooling'.

I love your wisdom about raising their sights as to godly manhood.
My tip would be one I continue to need to do : make time to listen to them. Life can move so fast and their young voices can get rushed out the door, but I need to hear them for them to hear me.
Again, I thank you for sharing your insights and wisdom with us.

He seems to be getting lost in the shuffle (I have 6 kids under the age of 11, including a newborn boy), and this delightful 4-year-old boy seems to be needing MORE. More attention, more direction, more activity, more...?? It seems if I can't focus enough on him, he's beginning to act up/misbehave. :-( I'm just now digging into the book and loving it!

I tell you in the intro i was already laughing when you shared about the comments in stores..and how at home sometimes it feels that what they say is true! That was great to know I am not alone. I am thankful for your book and have already told many about it and only just finished the second chapter. I am really excited about getting through this book and applying it for my boys and family. Hmm a tip for younger boys.......considering mud is inevitable...having a pair of rain boots for all types of days has been a big help because I can leave them OUTSIDE and not even have to clean them! :) Again thank you!!

I LOVE your book! :) Hmmmm... a tip. I would just say to let your boys be boys. It is NORMAL for them to be full of energy and rambunctious. Don't try to stifle that. :) Just sit back and enjoy their boyishness. I am the mother of 6 sons, and 4 daughters. I LOVE your book! :) Hmmmm… a tip. I would just say to let your boys be boys.
