Well, I guess that's not too bad. In just a little over 6 months I have completed 9 of these goals and I'm currently working on 14 of them. Not too bad. Hopefully I can get to a few more this summer. I would love to take Nicholas out exploring a little this year!
Do you have a Day Zero list? Have you completed some of your goals this year?
