What are your top few adjectives to describe how you would like your child to be...

I realize some traits are biological and personality related, but DH and I also believe there are some that can be developed through intentional parenting and experiences. So we have been having lots of interesting conversation about things to focus on and how to be intentional.

Good insight! I know the traits I listed are the traits I aspire to, and I either pride myself on being those things, or strive to be more like them.

Oh these are definitely things I would have wished for myself. But that's normal right? We all want our kids to be "better" than us.
