A few of my favorite bits of advice to mothers who have sons.

Eat lunch with him. Find out what's going on in his world.
Tell him often what it is you respect about him.
From you, he'll learn the importance of telling the truth. Be a good model.
Occasionally, let him stay up late and look at the stars. He'll never forget it.
Talk to him often about God's grace and he'll grow up seeing it.
Practice staying calm. This will serve you well in his teenage years.
Take him for walks. Tell him what he's seeing.
Don't forget: Praise is contagious. So is criticism.
