I'm grateful for my husband, who is a dedicated Dad. He said something to me tonight that shows the depths of his dedication to our children and to being present in their lives. He said that right now things are all about them, he didn't have parents who paid attention to him while growing up, who were available to him, etc and he wants to be available to our girls and pay attention to them so they know he cares and that he loves them and is invested in their lives. How grateful I am for a man who wants to be invested in the lives of his children and is. It already has and will continue to make all the difference for them.
I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
