As a new father Iām happy to finally be able to weigh in on the sorry state of baby milestones today. For too long the archaic benchmarks we celebrate, first steps, first word, first tooth, only work to reinforce mediocrity within our children. Everyone achieves these things. They are an inevitability. But how many parents can whip out their phone to proudly show off a video of their 16 week olds first High Noon Showdown? Who keeps in their wallet a photo of their toddlers First Gallon of Petrol Syphoned from a Car? Who has, in pride of place on the mantle, a dirt covered glow stick to commemorate their 6 months First Bush Doof. Today this changes. Celebrate real achievements with me. Elevate the expectations of babies to greatness. #babiesfirst #knifefight #babiesfirstknifefight #newmilestones #digitalillustration #halftonehospital #houlart #houl https://www.instagram.com/p/ChjXeGfBjCs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
