Choosing to Spend Our Time Wisely

Electronics are everywhere in our society. It seems they are taking over all of life, and they are certainly taking over our home! Some days it feels like the deepest discussions we have in a day are over who gets the computer next!

This week we have tried something new. We have set the router to turn off the internet for three hours each evening, meaning that noone is online when Michael gets home, and through dinner and bedtime. It is too early to see what the long term result will be but so far the effects have been fabulous!

Without the temptations of computer we have been spending time together, laughing, talking, and playing lots of games!

We even have a couple projects planned, such as organizing all our photos.

I love the freedom to be together that comes from not competing with a screen!
