Can we just bring back Manly?
Alright, so I've been noticing a growing trend lately. Well, ok, I've been noticing it for awhile actually. Maybe you have too? Skinny jeans. On boys. I find it completely and utterly um, unattractive? I guess that's the nicest way I can think of putting it. But really. What is going on??!! What happened to the manly men? Are we raising our boys to be wusses? Seriously! I know this is a deep subject and it goes way beyond the type of jeans I see so many of them wearing. Well it got me thinking about how I want my boys to be. We will be raising our boys to be MEN. My desire for my boys is for them to love God with all of their heart, soul, and mind. I want them to be courageous and unashamed to speak the truth. I want them to love their wives and families and to work hard. I want them to be leaders. I want them to be men the way God designed men to be. Whoa. I've got a lot of work to do. AND I guess I should add that I want that kind of man for my daughter too. Wusses need not apply please. No mama's boys here.

Amen!! I want the same thing. Strong, manly, God-loving boys who grow into strong, manly, God-loving men. And I pray for that kind of husband for my daughter someday, too. Ya know... like 50 yrs from now, when I finally let her date! :D
