[BOY MOMS] Kate from The Sokolewicz Family

Hey, y'all! I'm Kate, and I blog over at The Sokolewicz Family. Thanks Elizabeth for letting me guest post today and contribute to this awesome BOY MOM series!!

I'll start off by saying that I absolutely love being a BOY MOM and pray that we have all boys. 3 to be exact. They are just so much fun! The energy and enthusiasm they have every second of every day is unbelievable and infectious!



When I found out I was pregnant, I knew it was a boy. As most moms do, I just had a hunch. And when the ultrasound confirmed it, I think I literally jumped for joy! It's everything we'd ever hoped and prayed for.

On June 5, 2012, Jacob was born and our lives changed forever. What a complete joy he is! He's brought so much laughter and happiness to our home. He's so smart and curious, yet cautious and shy. Just when I think he couldn't be more fearless, he runs from the vacuum. To say he keeps us on our toes, would be an understatement!

I love the look on his face when he discovers something new or when he hears his daddy come home. I love watching them play together and can imagine, in years to come, all my boys running around the backyard together. I love his belly laughs, and how much he loves his dogs. I love his dancing, and his excitement over a chocolate chip cookie. I love how compassionate he is, and his random bear hugs.

The trucks and cars, balls and bats, dirt and sticks, snails, slugs, fearless acrobatics, and so much more. I certainly didn't play with these things growing up, but I'm learning how to now, and I love it! And I know he does too.

I can't wait to teach him how to swim, how to shoot hoops, how to play catch and hit a ball, how to ride a bike, and how to mow the lawn. But also how to cook and bake, how to fold laundry, and to open doors for women. Because raising a son, to me, is more than the rough and tough, it's my duty to raise a gentleman and a man of God. And one day, I hope his wife thanks me (as I did to my MIL).

But most of all, I want him to feel loved. Every single moment of the day. That, is my ultimate goal as a mom.

Thanks again Elizabeth for letting me share a little bit about why I love being a BOY MOM. I cannot wait to hear all the other stories coming this week, and throughout this series!
