Why Little Boys are the Greatest Gifts...

When I first became pregnant with Sebastian my immediate thoughts were of a sparkling little princess - pink - bows - frill. If you haven't read my blog before, I have 5 nephews and 2 nieces. Boys rule the roost around here. Although my first thoughts were that I really wanted a little girl, I had wanted a baby for awhile and just wanted him or her to be perfect & healthy. I can't take the suspense, so of course, I wanted to know the sex right away. A BOY! I may have had thoughts of a girl initially, but never a second was I disappointed that we were having a little boy. I was more excited than I could ever imagined.

God knows what he is doing. I can't envision our lives any other way. Sebastian is the greatest joy that I could ever have. There is just a bond with him that completely enthralls me. It's just astonishing.

Here are some of the greatest things about having a little boy...
