Story Hour

PLEASE understand that I’ll be forced to hide or delete anyone who goes motherhood rant on Facebook. Having the option to do so is the GREATEST gift Facebook affords me, and I thank God every day that I’ve been blessed with this ability. And I won’t apologize for that.

Sigh. Look, moms - if your friends are feeling neglected, contact them about it….individually. I doubt each of S.’s 738 friends have complained about her “not dropping everything to go shopping” since she had a baby. If anything, I’m guessing a few of her girlfriends have expressed frustration, which she could counter with a quick “Sorry! I’ve been super busy with the new baby. I’ll be in touch soon :).” But no. S. feels the need to address ALL of her friends to let them know that yes, she still loves them (all) and yes, she still prays for them (all), and no, she is not going to see them anytime soon. Could there be anything more impersonal?

Just call your friends, S. Remember the phone? That wacky 1876 invention that’s been upgraded at least 300 times in the last century and allows you to contact people in virtually in place at any time? That thing.
