    Please enter me. 2 boys, husband’s family has 5 boys and 1 girl. So far only boys from my husband’s family. I think it would be passed around and put to good use.

    Lord Henry is so cute. Spoil him rotten, he deserves it. (But beware, I spoiled my son, Jack, rotten due to his recent tonsillectomy. That was over a month ago and I am still trying to undo the damage.)

    I have 5 boys under age 8 and would love the chance to win the book. How do I enter?

    Thanks,
    Amy

    I have a son and could use some inspiration…

    Also, I think that sliper socks are a nice touch :)

    Love the slipper socks–thinking about putting a pair on myself since the temps dipped back into the 60s…And would love to be entered!

    Aww…poor Henry. Or should I say, poor Henry’s mom, since it looks like he’s pretty chill with his chopsticks?

    I would love to win the book, as a slightly-overwhelmed and always a step behind mom of young boys!! It would be nice to have the encouragement of reading stories from moms who have been there and the boys that they raised!

    Hi Rachel,

    God bless you and little Henry! I hope you’re all coping well!

    I love your blog and reading about your life with boys. As someone who grew up in a female household, I’m now a new mom who’s outnumbered by boys (my husband and son)! So I’m just learning what boys are all about. :)

    Will you enter me in your giveaway?
    Thank you and good luck with little Henry’s healing! – Jen

    Please enter me in, too. I only have one boy (14 years old) but I have my share of issues, too. (smile). He’s now recovering from a bicycle accident due to a failed trip down a ramp without a helmet. He’ll be ok. I thank God for no broken bones, no broken neck nor lost teeth. He does have an infection in his mouth (all that dirt and leaves) and a sore sore swollen jaw. God is good. This could have been a lot worse.

    My 9 month old son had a Spica cast for quite awhile and OH MY GOODNESS…..It was a very interesting experience. the looks I would get and every once in awhile a rude comment from people having no idea why he was in a cast and somehow felt I was the reason for his cast……I was absolutely shocked!!! Good-luck!!!! I hope for a speedy recovery!

    Would love a copy now that I have a son! Praying for your little Henry. My son is the same age, and I can hardly imagine what you’re doing to keep him still and quiet.
