I never pictured myself raising boys. In fact, I struggled with gender disappointment during both pregnancies. When the #dustyson content (check it out if you haven’t seen it!) started going viral this year, I realized how strong my convictions were in raising them with purpose — heavy on emotional awareness, empathy, kindness, and capability. Motherhood isn’t perfection- not every lesson lands. Many are a work in progress. All require repetition, reiteration, re-explanation. But my content mirrors what we emphasize at home, what we try to model, and the traits we hold priority.
