No sissies allowed in our house--my husband makes sure of that!  I can definitely say that my boys are all boy.  They love boyish things, and they spend their time in boyish pursuits.  In their imaginations, they have no limitations, they can slay the dragon, rescue the princess, conquer the bad guys, and still be back in time for lunch. 

In all seriousness, though, we deeply desire to train our sons to be men of virtue, willing to come to the aid and protection of women and children.  Though they are still boys, someday they will be men, and we desire that they will be godly men of character and uprightness, men prepared to fight against the flesh and the devil, men ready to stand for righteousness, men of integrity and honor, men who can be trusted to keep their word, men ready to lead their families in prayer and provision and by personal example.  There are precious few men like that these days--I want my boys to be that rare commodity--truly godly men.
