Aint it great! I've got a little Girl but she's going to be the best Tom boy around. Already wants to go Hunting, fishing, & boating. Wouldn't trade these moments for anything.

Pat, I hear ya! I have two boys who are 7 and 9. I find myself doing the Christmas shopping for them and really looking at the toys that I think are cool to play with. Guess i'm trying to make up for the lack of toys that I had as a kid.<br /><br /> Gotta get toys we can all play with! :D <br /><br />Wouldn't trade it for the world!! :)

Right here is where I live childhood all over again. lego blocks, log cabins. taught her how to ride a bicycle. Biggest little tom boy you ever saw. loves to fish. She is the reason I restored the boat because she wanted to go to lake and catch the big ones. Will not wear a dress. baits her on hook and his learning to tie a fly for trout.<br /><br />

I hear you all...I'm living the same thing and I wouldn't trade it for anything.<br /><br />I have two daughters 15 and 13, and a son 4.<br /><br />The oldest has discovered boys, but still hangs with Dad somewhat...The 13 yr. plays games with me and is quite the tomboy. I'll enjoy them while I still can. Breaks my heart to think of them growing up someday.<br /><br />Then there's my boy...I find myself spoiling him with all the toys I wished I had! <br />I think we are going to be "peas and carrots"<br /><br />Grandkids? Yes, I expect some...someday. I'm in no hurry. Then I get to spoil all over again!<br /><br />H.
