Having kids is probably the most heart-warming, and yet terrifying thing you will ever do. The pressures of providing, teaching, and keeping your small child safe are beyond overwhelming.
And the love you feel is like nothing ever imagined. From the moment he’s born, your heart will undoubtedly beat harder and faster, than you thought humanly possible.
It will feel ready to burst with pride at every milestone. And physically ache at times of sadness: a pain that's eased only with an adoring look or having him wrapped in your arms..
But then, out of nowhere, this pint-size person will shoot a water gun at your head. And he will laugh hysterically before running muddy footprints through the house and diving under the fresh duvet.
Being a boy Mom is an eye-opening experience. Nothing can prepare you for the whirlwind of chaos they bring or the immense amount of love you will feel for them (as proven with some of these boy mom quotes!)
Why is Being a Boy Mom So Special?
Whilst it’s good for kids to run free, get dirty and giggle at everything, boys are certainly more inclined to jump on board with this idea. In their minds, no tree is too tall, no worm is too wriggly and no fart is too loud, especially at the dinner table!
Their cheeky yet charming nature is a free pass for most things, especially when it comes to broken vases or felt tip-colored couches. And the phrase “Boys will be boys” gets used more often than a wet wipe on their forever grubby hands.
But despite the constant chaos, the extra laundry, the knocked-over juice, dubious stains, and a randomly lost shoe, you wouldn’t change a thing. Because as a Mom, you know your boy is perfect beyond words.
The bond you share is like nothing you ever imagined. It’s stronger than your morning coffee and brighter than your favorite top. It’s warm and honest, and everything that's right in the world.
You care more for that little man than you ever believed you could. And he does you, without question or cause. You are the light in his life; the reason that everything is OK.
So as he grows up and finds his own way, think back on the shenanigans, the silliness, and the soaking wet socks inside wellies that were meant to stay dry. For the childhood you now give, the encouragement you share, and the love you wrap around him will be the making of your son.
Let’s now take a look at these 105 boy Mom quotes that are funny & heartfelt.
