Hello, my fellow humans. As you can probably gather from the title- I am here to publish 100 of my life goals. I want to clarify that I am not tackling these all at once.

- Push my social boundaries when I can
- Talk to people on social media more (in seek of friendships)
- Don’t be afraid to take things slow- in order to prioritize the small moments with my family.
- Communicate my needs in order to keep the household running.
Motherhood:
- Take time to listen. While Kai cannot communicate his needs verbally yet, it does not mean he does not tell me what he needs. Take the time to listen.
- Understand that I will make mistakes and that is okay. The key to being a good parent is being accountable to those mistakes and do my best not to repeat them.
- Be kind and patient. I know that it is hard sometimes to regulate your emotions when you are over stimulated by Kai- but be a good example of regulation by staying kind and patient while he is learning to be a whole human of his own.
- Be silly. Trying to be perfect is boring and overrated. Let Kai see you be silly and fun. Show him how to dance with the world rather than fight against it.
- Be there and love. No matter what stupid little mistakes you make, your presence, your love, and being there for him is most important.
Romantic Relationships:
- Communicate. Even when things are hard to discuss or when feelings are tense- talk it out. A rough conversation is better than a brutal assumption.
- Never go to bed angry. Always get to a place where we can hold hands and go to sleep peacefully. Resolutions make for better sleep.
- Communicate our appreciation and adoration often. When you live together and have a baby- it’s easy to assume that the other knows you love them. But don’t let that stop you from reminding them.
- Communicate via their love language and ask them to communicate via yours. Learn all the ways to say I love you everyday.
- Be each others support system. Everything is not always easy. In fact it is often hard. So know and build a support system that we can both depend on.
Immediate Personal Goals:
- Get to 145lbs (Not dead set on that goal, as I would rather have muscle than be 145 lbs, but it’s a starting goal)
- Unpack the rest of the house by the end of this week. (October 8, 2022)

Life is messy. Being a human is messy. It’s not as neat as your “should’s”and “shouldn’ts” would have us believe.
