My 5 year old dresses like a white cholo. For those that are unfamiliar with the term Cholo, the Urban Dictionary describes it in part as a Hispanic male that typically wheres a flannel shirt unbuttoned except for the very top button. This is how Z dresses every day.

 
Don’t worry it’s not gang related. It makes him feel like he is wearing a cape. Every once in a while I can talk him out of it, but lately every day he asks to wear one of his capes. He is about as boy as a boy can be.

When a friend of mine posted about the M.O.B (mother of boys) Society doing a book club I signed up immediately. 
The book is called Wild Things- The Art of Nurturing Boys. I had three brothers and was the only girl in my family, but I still could definitely use some guidance in this area. 
I checked online to see if they had the book at my library and they did not have it at our specific branch, but I could order it. The next day while at the library I told them  I had put a book on hold, but it was coming from another library and I wasn’t sure how to order it. The librarian looked up my card number and informed me that the book had already been delivered and was on the shelf waiting for me. I went to look and sure enough there it was labeled with a slip of paper that had my name on it. I couldn’t believe it. The night before I had just clicked a button requesting the book and it was pulled off the shelf, put on a truck, driven to my library within 24 hours just for me, and it didn’t cost a thing. God bless America! 
This is my first book club and it all starts tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll learn a thing or two about how to raise up strong godly men without going loco on my ese.
