Making time for my kids is so much easier said than done

I’ll be mid-task, in a laptop or phone, and they come asking for attention

In spite of whatever I am working on not being time sensitive, I struggle to tear myself away

They cry

I get angry

Eventually calm down

And realise nothing is more important then them

Must do better

It’s always a struggle. We are just trying our best.

So real and so relatable. It’s wild how the smallest moments with them turn out to be the most important — yet in the moment, the pull of ‘productivity’ feels so strong.

Appreciate your honesty. You’re not alone — awareness is half the battle. Keep showing up. One day at a time 💛🙏
