B is for Boys' Club




















B is for Boys' Club


"Black holes are stronger than bears!" Ryan shouts launching himself into the air.
"No bears, are the strongest things in the universe!" My husband counters as Ryan lands on him and they tumble to the ground in a fierce battle.  They grab and wrestle until finally my husband, the bear, attacks with his most powerful defense, the dreaded Salmon Snatcher.  He pins Ryan to the ground and swipes Ryan's belly, tickling him ferociously.  Both of them break out into laughter and I'm called to see whether the Bear or the Black Hole won.  Just another day at the Boys' Club.

 In our family the girls outnumber the boys. So when Ryan was about 4, he and my husband came up with the Boys' Club.  They would hide under blankets and tell adventure stories of flying to Mars and other far off places.  No girls were allowed except by special invitation.  Now it has evolved to where they do special science projects together, read, play video games and play the infamous Bears vs. Black Holes.  Girls are still not allowed.  

Hope your B day is filled with beauty and boisterous fun!
