But beyond that, I'm looking forward to a LOT of things once no one needs a stroller and we can take public transportation anywhere easily. So many corners of NYC I want to show them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2553116 Fri, 20 May 2016 09:39:45 +0000 psw27 2553116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really looking forward to traveling together! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2553091 Fri, 20 May 2016 09:13:08 +0000 bloved 2553091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my boys first play together.<br /> Watching them play and enjoy a sport.<br /> First trip to Disney (well my one son went at 4 months, but when he can first really enjoy it).<br /> Future vacations together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2553087 Fri, 20 May 2016 09:09:17 +0000 Reese 2553087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hearing him speak in full sentences/really know how he thinks and what is on his mind :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2553086 Fri, 20 May 2016 09:07:16 +0000 Miss Ariel 2553086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bar and Bat mitzvahs.

I never got into all that crazy middle/high school drama - so I hope my girls can be the same. My biggest difficulties was being social and having a bigger group of tight friends. I hope they can develop tight friendships. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552972 Fri, 20 May 2016 07:10:42 +0000 regberadaisy 2552972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: M is going to big girl school for PreK in the fall. I will be VERY surprised if I don't bawl like a baby. Her first "big girl" performance is 6/10 for her preschool graduation and I can NOT wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552971 Fri, 20 May 2016 07:10:25 +0000 Anagram 2552971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm insane and lately just get sad when I think about them growing up. I work in a middle school and a group of girls were having some major drama this week and I got really sad thinking that LO will be this age before I know it, and wondering if she'll be emotionally prepared for this kind of stuff.</p> <p>I'm not typically sentimental, so it's interesting that I finally now feel really sentimental 2.5 years into this parenting thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552969 Fri, 20 May 2016 07:09:14 +0000 regberadaisy 2552969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Their wedding - I know, I know! I can't wait for them to meet someone who will love them with all their heart like we do. I hope that they find that speical someone like DH &amp; I did. I hope that whether their wedding is big or small, that they will want me to be a part of it.</p> <p>I hope we can take a backpacking trip through Europe together, as a family, when they're adults.</p> <p>In the closer future, I'm looking forward to finally be able to sign her up for soccer and ballet. She has been asking for so long and it breaks my heart a little each time she asks. Seeing her golf with DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552954 Fri, 20 May 2016 06:30:24 +0000 lamariniere 2552954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really have a specific event in mind (I'm not a very sentimental person :silly: ) but I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing what kinds of interests they develop and possible career paths they will follow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552946 Fri, 20 May 2016 05:46:58 +0000 Cherrybee 2552946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First day of school for me, too! I cant wait to see her in a little uniform! I'm also looking forward to their first nativity plays - I'm going to cry like a baby!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552839 Thu, 19 May 2016 20:59:24 +0000 JennyD 2552839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely when she starts to read. I can't wait to see what she reads. Also the science fair. This summer I'm looking forward to our first "backpacking" trip :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552689 Thu, 19 May 2016 19:00:08 +0000 littlebug 2552689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First time reading Harry Potter together! #nerdalert</p> <p>A's first dance recital (assuming she takes dance). D's first time at a driving range with real golf clubs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-think-about-your-kids-futures-are-there-specific-moments-that-you-can-see#post-2552674 Thu, 19 May 2016 18:46:05 +0000 mrbee 2552674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first day of school was huge for me, and was a moment I thought about a lot when my kids were young! It's something I remembered from my own childhood, and it just seemed impossible that my little guy would ever be in school himself. But then in a flash he was in pre-K and then in Kindergarten!! I still can't believe it... </p> <p>I also loved taking the kids to their first baseball game. I'm not even that into baseball! It's just such an iconic part of American life and let's be honest, I am never going to throw a baseball with my kids. So going to a baseball game together was a big deal.</p> <p>Other than that, big future moments for me will be when my kids get really into reading (just happened for my son!) and when they get super into a topic and become obsessed with it (hasn't happened yet). I guess all my future moments are nerd moments.</p> <p>When you think about your kids' futures, are there specific moments that you are looking forward to? </p>
