Overview

The most important job in the world

This treasury of wisdom, humor, and love is a guide for every step of the exhilarating, sometimes exasperating journey that begins with those three wonderful words: It's a boy! Its hundreds of lessons from mother to son include instilling values and confidence. Knowing when to say yes, and when to say no.

It’s filled with the importance of nurturing responsibility: Teach him that the world will judge him by his actions, not his intentions. Fun stuff: Have tea with him in the afternoons. Serve cookies. And when he’s ready to go: Hug him fiercely.

In the Beginning

If you wait until he cries to pick him up, you're teaching him to cry

He will need a nap every day for his first five years. So will you.

Leaving Home

Remember, he'll be back. He's hungry.
