3. Superhero Mishaps

Don recalls an incident when his boys attempted to be superheroes by jumping off the couch, attempting to fly. The result? One broken lamp and a house full of laughter. Despite the mishap, Don appreciated their creative imagination and encouraged them to channel their energy into safer activities such as building forts or playing outdoor sports.

4. The Food Fight

One chaotic dinner turned into a food fight extravaganza that left the walls and the boys covered in spaghetti sauce. Don's wife walked in, puzzled by the scene, before bursting into laughter herself. They all joined in, smearing mashed potatoes and vegetables, transforming the dining room into a colorful mess. It was a messy memory they collectively cherished, reminding them to lighten up and enjoy the spontaneous moments.

5. The "Oops" Shaving Incident

As boys grow older, they become interested in grooming themselves. Don's eldest son, Jackson, decided to give himself his first shave but accidentally ended up shaving off a chunk of his hair instead. Shocked, he came running to Don for help. Don couldn't resist cracking up but took the opportunity to teach him the importance of patience and proper techniques when it comes to grooming.

6. The Fort Masterpiece

Don recounts a time when his boys transformed the living room into an epic fort filled with pillows, blankets, and furniture rearranged into tunnels and secret hideouts. It took hours for them to construct their elaborate masterpiece but just minutes for the entire structure to come crumbling down during an enthusiastic pillow fight. Don decided to embrace the chaos and helped them rebuild, appreciating their teamwork and creativity.

7. The Bubble Bath Tsunami

One evening, Don's kids decided to host a bubble bath extravaganza. They poured in excessive amounts of bubble bath solution, turning the bathroom into a foamy paradise. As Don entered, he found his boys completely submerged in bubbles, giggling away. He realized the importance of allowing his kids to indulge in harmless fun while being cautious about water usage.

8. The Midnight Symphony

Imagine waking up to the sound of pots, pans, and impromptu drumming echoing through your house in the middle of the night. Don experienced this firsthand when his boys decided to form a "midnight symphony" with kitchen utensils. Instead of getting angry, Don grabbed a couple of wooden spoons and joined their rhythmic escapade, creating a memory they still laugh about.

9. The Bedtime Stunts

Bedtime is never mundane in Don's house. His boys have mastered the art of creative bedtime stunts, such as building pillow towers that reach the ceiling, pretending to be acrobats on their bunk beds, or falling asleep in absurd positions. Don embraces their imagination, ensuring they are safe while allowing them to explore their boundaries and develop their unique personalities.

10. The "Hiding" Spot

Don's boys are notorious for their hide-and-seek skills. One day, Don spent an entire hour searching for his third son, Liam, only to find him curled up inside the clothes hamper, covered in dirty laundry. Don couldn't help but appreciate Liam's determination to find the "perfect" hiding spot, even if it meant dealing with a pile of unwashed clothes.

Funny parenting stories are not only entertaining but also serve as reminders for parents to cherish the unpredictable and humorous moments that come with raising a house full of boys or any children for that matter. Don Call's experiences demonstrate the importance of embracing chaos, finding laughter in unexpected situations, and fostering a supportive environment that encourages children to explore their creativity and unique personalities. So, the next time your house is filled with laughter and chaos, remember to embrace the madness and create memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Being a boy mom isn’t for the faint-hearted!

When Sandra Mathias gave birth to three boys in three years followed by a fourth a few years later, it was official…She was a boy mom. "Uterus closed!"

Beginning with each son’s dubious arrival—one looked like Popeye, one like an Ewok, one like a Smurf turtle, and the last dared to bungee jump into the world—Mathias navigates the early years of parenting with a sense of humor, irreverence, and touch of shrewd resourcefulness that only a mother who hasn’t slept in years can have. From the arrival of “Sketchy Mom” who craftily devises a plot to catch whoever was drinking her Diet Pepsi, to family planning Disneyland style, Mathias’ real-life stories from the trenches of motherhood will reassure parents everywhere that they are not alone—once they stop laughing.

Part memoir, part helpful guide for her children’s future therapists, My Blue Thumb is a hilarious, tongue-in-cheek guide to raising boys and everything that comes with it—trips to the ER, the appearance of pee in unexpected circumstances, all with a heart and home overflowing with love, for the incredible independent men she raised.
