How I imagine myself as a mother ꧂

Going to eat out on weekend

Absolutely no iPads or any phones allowed (unless it's emergency and if someone is calling you) I want to prioritize faily time

We'll travel a lot during holidays

I want my kids to see the whole world with me and I just think it would be so cool

Reading bedtime stories

My parents sadly (almost) never did that so I think it would be cute to read for my kids 20 minutes before going to sleep

Cook with them

Go to the park

Dress them in really cute clothes

I WILL be financially stable

I am going to provide everything for kids. Sure, they do not need the newest iPhone but I want to give them everything I couldn't have as a child

No matter what, I am there for my kids

It doesn't mean that I am going my kid to get away with something. I will try my best to be gentle but also with discipline. No matter what they did

Make birthdays a big deal

Make them cute healthy meals

Strawberry picking

We'll drive every June to a strawberry field and pick strawberries

There is NO WAY I'm sending them to Gymnasium

It's the hardest school in the German school system and I just do not want to put THAT much pressure on my kids. They are going to Gesamtschule or Gemeinschaftsschule instead (of course if I decide to stay in Germany)

Church

I want to bring them to church to teach them about God and Jesus's sacrifice. Once they're old enough to decide, I'll let them decide if they still want to stay rooted in Christ. If they choose not then I will respect that but still encourage them and have an open ear for them and pray

No sleepovers unless they're family friends or cousins

No phone until 10

My kid will receive an iPad with 6 but with strict parental controls and once they have their phone with 10, then I am going to loosen the parental control until they can use it freely at 13

I do not care if my son will like pink and my daughter will like cars

I do not care. My child is still my child even if their interests are different.My controversial opinion is that I would not let my kids transition until they're old enough to comprehend what that actually means. Yes, I do not support transgender people but at the end of the day I still have respect for them and God gave us free will. If my kids come out, I will try to be as understand as possibl

Self-care days

When we both feel stressed out then we'll do a spa day at home. We'll use face masks, watch a movie and relax.

Russian, German, English

I will practice those languages with my kids. I am def not moving to Russia but I will prioritize the language of the land we're living in
