Becoming a boy mom.

I always pictured myself as a girl mom. I could do girl. But a boy? Boys scared me.

Until I had one.

I loooooooooooove having a little boy. Like, super love times a thousand, love.

Maybe there is just an inherent nervousness about having a second baby that is the opposite gender from your first. I’ll speak for myself, but I was comfortable with girl stuff. Boy stuff seemed foreign. But…

…it’s true.

There’s just somethin’ about little boys.

He makes me more emotional. He softens me in a different way than my daughter has. He strengthens me. (in more ways than one)

He is just exactly the person to complete this family.

Boys

are

awesome.

The end.

Hi! Hello! I am Shawna, the founder of Styleberry Blog.

I hope so! Beyond the computer, I run Styleberry Creative where I work with clients to create low fuss, high function spaces that are pretty and practical in San Antonio, Texas and beyond. I LOVE making a house a home. My own studs out renovation is now complete and I am now back to working with clients. Please don't hesitate to drop me a line if you'd like to work together!
