Until I realized, that we already do all of those things.
And then, horror of horrors, I realized that the one who needed to become 'unplugged' was me!
That the only one who turns on the TV (after bedtime!) is me ... or My Good Man, but this post is about me, not him :-)
That the lure of the computer and the internet can be a little too seductive, some days.
That while I could be spending more time completely engaged with my Little Ones, they are putting up with me just answering one last email, checking out one more blog.
Ouch.
And then, the second wave of horror; I'm not only showing my children how I want to spend my time, but also what is important to me.
It's just so easy to get pulled into the computer, and I don't have any magical answers. But this sudden realization is a little horrifying to me.
So ... here's me, closing the lid of my laptop, putting away my smart phone, turning off the talk radio and spending more time with the Little Ones playing, tickling, singing, dancing and laughing.
(At least until after bedtime ;-)
How unplugged are you? How do you self-monitor your computer, TV and smart phone use?
