Above all else, I really want my LO and any future kids to be patient and kind to others. I want to start early by modeling those behaviors in all interactions with them and others when they are around. As they grow older, I want to have conversations and analysis of situations where both are involved. It is hard, because patience isn't my husbands strength and I can have a mean sense of humor that comes off wrong.

What types of behaviors/values are important for you to cultivate in your LO? Do you or your SO struggle with the very thing you want to teach them?
