The biggest difference between mothering girls and boys?
Boys need MUCH more active time. Run them, before school, after school, before bedtime... Like a dog except that they can talk:)
Boys eat MUCH more food. Possibly a generalization, however, when I pack lunches, my 5 year old boy will eat almost twice as much food as my 7 year old daughter, and then he will eat her leftovers in the car on the way home from school. I can't even begin to imagine what life will be like with 2 teenage boys under my roof.
Boys are so LOUD.
Boys are noise covered in dirt. A true statement, but also misses the sweetness, and usual lack of manipulation that I've noticed in the other gender (cough-girls-cough).
What have you noticed?

Completely true! My daughter is definitely more manipulative and verbal. My boy is all sweetness and love. Possibly a generalization but I truly am seeing it more and more. I see a lot less emotional "angst" in my son. When he cries it usually is a "hierarchy of needs" reason. My daughter will whine and cry just because the world is what it is at that particular moment in the day :-)
