Look Up

I intend to continue to use this blog as a journal of the lessons I learn in submission. If it blesses one person besides me for writing it out, it will be worth it. However, I have moved away from social media for a couple of weeks now because my dear husband and I had a discussion about how it was affecting us. I want to live in the real moments, hear about others' joys in person, or if they are far away, over the telephone. I no longer want my sons to watch as I "look down." I want to look into the eyes of my handsome husband as often as I can. I want him to know he has my undivided attention. I want to do the same with our precious boys. There is not enough time in a day to read everyone's posts and see everyone's pictures and enjoy the friends, family, and even strangers around me simultaneously. I would rather be in the moment than have everyone wait a moment while I check my social media. I'm not judging you but my decision was confirmed when a dear friend of mine sent me a link to this video…
