I Won’t Stop Sharing Joyful Moments

Hey there! So, let me introduce you to my little crew. We look pretty cheerful in this snapshot, right? Sure, it was a scorching day by the waterfront, we were snackless, and I may have snapped at my partner for guzzling the last of our water long before we reached the car. Still, we’re mostly smiling! I love sharing these joyful moments on Instagram and Facebook. Yep, I’m one of those moms who loves to document our happy times. I’m basically the family historian of all things joyful.

But every now and then, I come across articles in my feed that look down on my happy photo-sharing habit. Some even go so far as to say it’s harmful to my kids or that it’s just annoying. Seriously? [Insert all the eye-roll emojis and confused GIFs here.] After a moment of doubt, I find myself asking: Am I showing too much happiness? But then I remind myself, this is who we are.

Here’s why I won’t stop sharing our happy pictures online:

1. Social Media Can Be a Positive Force
   What? Social media isn’t just for self-promoters and drama queens? Absolutely! At its core, social media is about connection. Yes, it’s a digital connection, but it’s still real. It can inspire and uplift us. By sharing our joys, we’re spreading love.
2. Pictures Tell Powerful Stories
   No need to elaborate here—after all, a picture speaks a thousand words!
3. You Don’t Need to Dim Your Light
   You can shine bright without making others feel smaller. To quote a wise woman, “As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.” So go ahead, share those adorable bath-time photos or silly family selfies. They brought you joy, and that’s worth sharing.
4. Life Isn’t Always Sparkles and Sunshine
   Let’s be real; life can be tough. Just last week, my son came home with head lice from a friend—a delightful gift from a baseball helmet. Before I knew it, the whole family was dealing with lice. Our washing machine was working overtime, and of course, that’s when the sump pump decided to go kaput. Flooded basement, broken internet, and itchy kids. Sounds like a blast, right?

Trust me, I have a ton of these stories—five kids will do that! For every happy photo I post, there are probably a dozen moments of chaos. I’m transparent about our ups and downs, but I choose to focus on the good. There’s always something to smile about, even if it means searching a little harder some days.

Maya Angelou once said, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” That’s exactly why I share our happy moments online. I hope to spread a little happiness and positivity to others.
