I rarely blog these days and have not ...Hi Rebecca,<br />I rarely blog these days and have not added to my blog reading list, just kept the ones I discovered early on including yours that I thought of as 'kindred spirits' and a few that mainly inspire me visually in the homemaking arts. I'm very grateful to the small circle of friends I found in blogland and my daughter was able to stay with two of those families when she visited Canada and the US in May. One of my main motivations in beginning a blog was to have a family journal. There is already a wealth of homeschool advice, decorating and cooking blogs out there to help and inspire people and I found blogging was stealing my time as I tried to think of posts to write and I couldn't figure out how to blog from my phone and get the photos to display in the right order. I'm still on Facebook mainly to keep in touch with family and friends overseas and I enjoy the encouraging posts from ministries that I value such as Elizabeth George's but yes, I think you are right it is too noisy and for me it wearies my soul at times. Was useful for promoting the movie War Room though when it came to our local movie theatre. I also had a friend tell me Instagram was a much nicer place providing you are careful who you follow so recently I began using it a lot more. As a result, I connected with another Christian homeschool family who live a few hours away. Over the years people used to ask me if we knew this family as we had mutual friends but I have never met them until I realized the lady who I was following on Instagram who loved vintage style was the mom from this family! We wrote to each other and realized how much we had in common and we finally met for real a few months ago! I'm also enjoying just putting up moments from our days at home - the desserts my girls bake, the books we are reading, days at the beach, the birds in the garden and a few pictures that reflect our faith and aspirations which I hope will inspire others - a picture can say a thousand words! I would love to follow you on Instagram. Are you using the same name as your blog or your own name? I'll try and find you or email me and I'll let you know my account name.

Even with a very small restrict news feed I fend it surely doesn't feed me "well". I sore Instagram because I can pay all the memories I want and then with just a couple of clocks I print my memories into a book. My decade long stress over keeping up with family memories is over. Wahooooo! I do so enjoy your IG pics.

For the last few years we've been on Instagram with very low profile. Quiet is good. Loishttp://dinghome.netnoreply@blogger.com
