[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the whole thread but I am a mother of two sons (young - 5 and 2) who lost my mother before my older son was born.  We were extremely close.

I thought I wanted a daughter - wow, I couldn't have bene more wrong or happier with my boys.  So much good advice in this thread - little boys are the BEST - so loving, and fun, and low drama.  Even in preschool the girls are torturing each other.

I'm also very close with my MIL.  Teach your boys the value of choosing a woman you'll be close with (if those are qualities you value).  I'm not exactly like my MIL, but we are both very devoted to our family and respect each other as individuals (she never meddles; is there when we need her; our boys adore her; she treats me like a daughter; etc).  My FIL was one of 3 boys and when his mother was sick, they all stepped up and handled everything.

Boys are amazing.  Seriously.  Consider yourself lucky![/quote]

I agree.

I was initially sad when I found I was having a boy -- but having a boy has turned out to be so much fun!  And boys LOVE their mothers.  And he's very low drama. [/quote]
