Earlier I was looking through my Life List and thinking about the kinds of things that are on it. I've accomplished a few of them recently and was writing about that. I started thinking about what your Life List might look like one day. I have no idea who you'll be, but here's a mini list for your first few months of life - things that will make you feel accomplished and things that we wouldn't mind too much either...
- Enjoy sleeping all night long.
- Learn to smile. Use this skill on your parents all the time (If you don't accomplish #1, I think you will want to accomplish #2 post haste!).
- Be game for whatever comes your way. (Let others hold you, be chill about traveling, eat like a champ from a bottle if Mom's not around.)
- Have a favorite activity. (Bathtime? Swingtime? Walk in a carrier or stroller? Find something you love... so that we can capitalize when you're not in a great mood.)
- Look super-cute. (When all else fails, this is your get-out-of-jail-free card, kid.)
Love,
Mama
