What kind of man will he be?

CJ and I were out on our weekly "date" last night and of course Collin was one of the main topics of conversation. We were wondering out loud about what kind of man our little chief would grow up to be and the kind of influence we, as his parents, will have on this process of becoming a person. As first time parents I think that this is one of the things we're really struggling with. How many of our own biases and judgements will we ultimately pass onto him? How about our ideas about politics, religion, and ethics? CJ and I are known to have some very differing opinions on some of these things...how will that play out as we raise our kids? We both agreed that the important thing would be to find balance and common ground as much as possible. We both want Collin to be an open-minded and compassionate individual. Of course, balance and common ground are things that are easier said than done. It's obviously a little hard to predict what kind of a person Collin will grow into, but he's already giving us little clues as to his temperment...determined, enthusiastic, energetic, affectionate...so far so good.
