“Here’s what I’ve learned about raising boys… if you keep ’em busy, they’re fine. You let ’em get bored, they’ll dismantle your house board by board.” – Kenny Rogers
“A small son can charm himself into, and out of, most things.” – Jenny de Vries
As a mom and someone who has worked with children for many years, I have seen my share of little boys charming their way out of sticky situations. Boys can be quite endearing when they want to be, that’s for sure.
I’ve rounded up some funny and relatable quips from boy moms to share with you…enjoy!
#1 Ok, they win…
Me: My daughters are fighting non stop this summer. Parent with sons: My boys tore off our garage door yesterday and painted 1/5 of our house orange.
Moms of little boys — go ahead and soak up that sweet baby boy smell, because in a few years his feet will stink so badly you'll pull the car over, convinced there's a rotting raccoon carcass in it.

#3 No need for chit-chat…
My son on why Caleb is his best friend at kindergarten: "He doesn't really speak English, so we can skip all the talking and just get right to the karate."
Discovered that when 10yo boys go on a school trip for 3 days, there’s no laundry when they come back because they’re unaware they can actually change their clothes
My son interrupted my phone call to tell me that he was going to die of boredom. I informed him that was impossible since I'm still alive after listening to him talk about Minecraft for the last 5 years.
I’ve been trying to figure out which of the boys in our home is causing the bathroom mess. The mystery was solved when my 9yr old just bragged to us about how he can pee with his eyes shut.
Boy moms are the best because I’ll be like “my boy is out of control sometimes” and they’ll be like “my boy tore down a whole wall in our house” and it always makes me feel better.
