I remember years ago when I found out that I was having a boy, I grimaced at the idea of having to buy guns, and swords and bows and arrows. Someone told me, "Oh, you won't even have to buy them. Boys will just make their own." They were right.
I also remember asking Gramma one year if she had any ideas on what to get John Caden for his birthday since she had raised three boys and has several grandsons. She mentioned anything with a ball is always a good choice because "boys love to just run around throwing a ball." Seemed odd at the time, but she was definitely right! A day doesn't go by without John Caden for hours on end, running around the house tossing a ball against a wall, up in the air to himself or to any willing recipient in the family (including Hudson).
