Friends, its been awhile. But I hope to be here a lot more. I have been getting this feeling lately that I need to prioritize. Prioritize my things, my finances, my thoughts, and most importantly-my time. I remember a day not too long ago that Mack was sleeping, Ellie and I were sitting in the living room, me on Instagram and Ellie on her IPAD. I remember thinking "what am I doing??" I was so mad at myself that I had let it get to the point of me not even interacting with her. I was choosing to scroll through social media for hours instead.
I think the breaking point for me was when I went onto the settings on my phone and saw how much time I was actively looking at my phone instead of playing or being present with my kids. I was stunned and sick to my stomach.
I want to be THERE for my kids. I want to be present. I would rather be in tune with them instead of up to date on Instagram.
It’s been a few days since I have deleted the 900 people I followed and I already feel better. I can already tell my kids are happier and more engaged. Im excited to see what I can accomplish in the extra 2.5 hours I’m saving by deleting the app. (How embarrassing is that.)
So I’ve decided this is going to be the place where I save my memories/post updates about my little family and that makes me excited and happy again. ❤️❤️
