I love looking back through the posts to be amazed at the cool things I’ve already forgotten about and that seer that we’ve actually accomplished a lot. I also hope my kids go through it someday and have great memories. Parenting goes by fast! The grandparents/family live away and abroad so it means a lot to them. I certainly would not be offended for anyone to unfollow me! I love seeing other parents posts because parenting can be isolating and also I get great ideas. I avoid embarrassing or “bad day” pics due to kid consent issues and I just accept that everything we see on Facebook is rose colored and not necessarily real life.

Oh yes it is so much easier to find stuff if you have posted it to Instagram! I often regret not posting important things that happened a few years ago because it’s hard to dig through tens of thousands of worthless to find them.
