What is one characteristic you really want your child to have?
Q. What is the one personality trait/characteristic that you really want your existing or future child to have? For instance, I really hope my daughter likes to read. Is there an activity you want your child to do or an attribute you want him/her to have? By the way, I will embrace my daughter no matter what she turns out to be like (only three weeks old, so, other than feisty, she doesn't have too many attributes yet) and love her dearly, so don't freak out on me. What is your heart set on?
