I'm sure you've all seen "The Godfather". You may or may not remember one of the first scenes that takes place during his daughter's wedding. In a conversation with his daughter and new son-in-law he says to them, "May your first child be a masculine child". Whether this is his wish because he believes this would be the preference of the couple, or he just wants to ensure the family "business" is carried on, I'm not sure, but he never mentions what the preferential gender is for the succeeding children. Maybe this means he doesn't care, and that he'd welcome these children into his family regardless. We obviously do not have a family as depicted in this movie, nor are we trying to follow suit (this wouldn't work, as I tend to ask too many questions), but it just so happens that our first child was a masculine child. And so was our second. Let me introduce you:
One of the things that I love the most about Ty is that he is totally uncensored. He will proudly and defiantly tell his big brother's friends "I love playing with girl toys", then he'll karate chop them.
Oh, and he asked me to delete all the pictures of him dressed up like a princess, but I can't. These will have to resurface at some point later in his life. He also didn't want me to show them to any of his friends, so please don't show them to your kids. Or mention to him that you've seen them. He woudn't be happy with me. I guess he's not completely uncensored.
