Pov,
It's challenging sometimes keeping up with social media while being a full time travelling mother. While also so deeply in the moments with this lovely being. I enjoy being able to share these moments with you all as I find it allows people to acknowledge the possibilities. Not necessarily to have anyone "live vicariously" through us, that kind of grosses me out. I actually deleted my social media when I first became a mother because the idea of being watched while mothering felt creepy. Although, now with the awareness I have I've developed the capacity to clear the eyes, thankfully. Also, my daughter would just throw my phone and break it so that was pretty clear sign. Being fully immersed in the presence of parenting is such a gift. I hear so many people say enjoy it while it lasts, time goes so fast. I find while being so present our days feel like 80 years in just one day. We compact it with so much adventure, emotion, play, beauty & wonder. & When I feel like ah okay I can hop on this platform to share, it's definitely not all the time. I wake up and mom it up, the moments I have for myself, I'm not interested in hoping on here. When I share clearings it's mostly due to feeling ah theirs a lot up and active let's get on there. Financially, I find if I were totally on this platform a lot, my finances would look a lot different than they do. Although, I find these moments I have with my child at the age she's at I wouldn't choose money over seeing the smile when she first wakes up, helping her to feel recalibrated, making sure she feels my legs when she presses her legs on mine to check if I'm there, or the 5 years I was breastfeeding her building her cells, being there for her first surf, sharing 1,00000000000 stories. I'd much prefer to choose presence.
