Everyone is familiar with the list of firsts we wait with bated breath for baby to accomplish. Here are some firsts you may not have thought of.
- First full sentence. Of course, the first word is exciting but just wait untill they say a full sentence!
- First act of kindness. Doing good, like sharing or helping around the house, doesn’t exactly come naturally.
- First sport played. Whether it’s their first baseball game or swim match, the first one they participate in is still a first.
- First dance. A little baby boogie can melt your heart.
- First time they dress themselves. They may not have the best sense of style, but that comes in time.
- First meal at a restaurant. It feels great knowing that you can leave behind baby food when you take the kids out to eat.
- First trip. We’re not talking trip to the grocery store. This is a big trip where you plan to stay away from home at least one night.
- First lie. No one looks forward to this, but it is a part of growing up.
- First desert. A taste of ice-cream, a lick of a lollipop, these are the things that make life sweet.
- First walk without a stroller. It will be slow going at first but walking sans-stroller gives you so much freedom you may never go back.
