Mom to Mom
Do you want your kids to go to college? Have children of their own? Become doctors? Humanitarians? What would you like to see your children do? Go to prom? Dance on Broadway? Win triathalons?
For me, I'd like to see each of my kids go to and graduate from college. I see my oldest going into the journalism field--probably more toward broadcast journalism. My others are still a little young to guess at where their passions lay. I want to see all of my girls have happy high school years with wonderful moments at prom. I want to see all of my girls find the one they love, whether it is male or female doesn't matter to me, but I want them to know it's okay to wait and be alone rather than rush into a long term commitment that they soon regret. I have a hard time wrapping my head around the possibility of someday being a grandmother. My oldest says she never wants to have babies out of her own body but that she wants to adopt. She's 9 so that may change, but if she chooses to adopt I would support her completely.
I would also like to live long enough to see each of my kids achieve their dreams--whatever those dreams may be.

I would like each of them to finish college- my oldest is passionate about basketball so I'd like to see him play in college.
I would love for them to be happy in their future relationships and I want grandchildren but their happiness will always come first.
I hope they grow up to be smart, well-rounded individuals and not pass up special opportunities that may arise (an excellent job opportunity, traveling, etc)
