BOYS....I was used to raising girls a good five years before Trey came into our lives. He has been a completely different experience for us, me in particular! I mean, I was raised with one SISTER under a pretty strict household. None of these boy shenanigans would be allowed (or would they...we'll never know!).

Trey is LOUDLY opinionated (don't know where he got that :), school isn't as easy for him, and I think he tries to stay out of trouble (although, lately it seems it follows him). He always has a story to tell and sometimes it get exaggerated, I mean he is 9 years old. I can tell you that the past four months, I have been on my knees praying harder than I have in a long time. Mostly about guidance and wisdom on how to handle this BOY of mine! I went through a stage of protective denial, aka enabling. It didn't take long for me to realize ...
