Dropping the Man-Shield
He is all boy! He loves sports. Especially football. He will immerse himself in anything athletic absorbing facts and stats. It’s not all bad. He’s learned geography by identifying teams (college and pro) and their locations and placing them on a map. He can count by sevens faster than any first grader I know.
And in true all boy fashion, he will cringe and moan, covering his eyes at the big kiss scenes of any movie or show. When his aunts come to visit, he will run and hide when they ask for a big kiss and wipe them off should one happen to sneak in a peck.
All boy.
He is also the sweetest little boy that you could ever happen to meet. And every once in a while will let his man-shield down just far enough to expose his inner goodness.
Last night was just one such instance.
Zane dropped his shield long enough to indulge his sisters, Zia and Zella, in a rip roaring game of Pretty Pretty Princess.
God, I love that kid!
