We found out today we are having a boy! I know I would have been just as excited if the baby was a girl, but every father wants a son, I think. Now I have to figure out how to raise this kid. Good thing we have 20 more weeks.
What are the lessons I want to teach my boy? What position will he play on his little league team? How do I raise a godly man? Heck, how do I become a godly man?
I do know I will teach my son about the importance of surrounding himself with other godly men that he can look up to and turn to for guidance. Hopefully I will be on that list, but he will need boys and men his age to help spur him on.
Dad will always be there, regardless of his choices, but how do I protect him? How much should I protect him? When do I let him learn from his own mistakes?
I'm blessed to have several men in my life who have done this many more times and had to answer these questions themselves.
And what am I going to name him?!?
