30 Things My Kid Should Know About Me: The Opening Challenge

I seem to get these wild hairs to try new blogging ideas. This one came from Pintrest, where oh so many ideas come from. Once I found out I was pregnant, I started looking at all things kids and drooled over things I couldn't repost without letting anyone know I was pregnant. After everyone knew about the baby, I started posted all sorts of different things having to do with babies, children, being pregnant, childbirth, and on and on and on. I started this blog to document things that I'm thinking during pregnancy and hope to continue it even after I give birth, though I know I will have less free time then. So one of the things that I found that seemed interesting was called 30 Things My Kids Should Know About Me. I decided this would be interesting and give me new things to think about. I think this was designed to be a 30 day challenge, but I discovered that I'm not any good at time lines like that, so my goal is to be finished with this before my baby turtle makes his/her way into the world. That give me several months and should be enough time for me.

Here is the list of the 30 Things:

1. List 20 random facts about yourself.
2. Describe 3 legitimate fears you have and explain how they became fears
3. Describe your relationship with your spouse.
4. List 10 things you would tell your 16 year-old self, if you could.
5. What are the 5 things that make you most happy right now?
6. If you could have three wishes, what would you wish for?
7. What is your dream job, and why?
8. What are 5 passions you have?
9. List 10 people who have influenced you and describe how.
10. Describe your most embarrassing moment.
11. Describe 10 pet peeves you have.
12. Describe a typical day in your current life.
13. What’s the hardest part of growing up?
14. Describe 5 strengths and weaknesses you have.
15. Describe when you knew your spouse was the one or how I fell in love.
16. What are your 5 greatest accomplishments?
17. What is the thing you most wish you were great at?
18. What do you think your spouse loves most about you?
19. How did you feel the moment you became a parent?
20. Describe 3 significant memories from your childhood.
21. Describe your relationship with your parents.
22. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 15 years?
23. What’s your favorite holiday and why?
24. What’s your favorite and least favorite thing about parenthood?
25. If you could have dinner with anyone in history, who would it be and what would you eat?
26. What popular notion do you think the world has most wrong?
27. What is your favorite part of your body and why?
28. What’s your favorite quality in your spouse?
29. What are your hopes and dreams for your prosperity?
30. List 10 things you would hope to be remembered for.

Some of them will be easier than others and some will be very challenging and require me to do a lot of self-reflection. I look forward to this and seeing where it takes me.
