Parenting in a screen age is not easy and we are just beginning. We personally are not against screens and computers for a variety of reasons but also can see the damage that can easily ensue from too much time and too many internet-based games. Our previous screen time earning system worked for a while but soon regular activities became all about earning screen time throughout the day and the mental load it was taking for us and the kids was opposite the intention of the system. We’ve upped the ante for this summer, limited when they can cash in and removed some givens (like playing Legos), and we’ll see how it works. They don’t play games that require interaction with other players and can only allow “friends” who are present in the room. I’d love to hear what other families do to help kids learn how to manage screen time and make this part of life not become life. What say you? ☺️🎮🏡💻 • • • #screentime #kidscreentime #summerbreak #earnscreentime #tablettime #parentinginthedigitalage #trytryagain

Currently mourning Papaw. 😭 This book: so helpful and so well written. • • #hillbillyelegy #rustbelt #upwardmobility #povertyinamerica #whitepoverty #theamericandream #americandreamdiffered

New post (link in bio) about being adopted and learning curiosity about my past and being Korean. I’m in the process of looking for answers about my biological history and being more honest and inclusive in my understanding of interracial and international adoption. • • #koreanadoptee #koreanadoption #interracialadoption #adoption #internationaladoption #identity #tck #holdingspace #myadopteejourney #multiethnicfamily

A new opportunity in my biological relative search. The Korean Consulate in Los Angeles is collecting DNA from adoptees for the Korean police database. Over the years this program has helped adoptees and families searching for surrendered children reconnect. Some people have flown to Seoul to do this in the past; now some fly to LA. • • #adoptee #koreanadoptee #grateful #adoption #interracialadoption #internationaladoption #koreatownla

Delighting in the mess, knowing it won’t be like this for long. There are helpers, there is no deadline, the past does not have the final say, the rules are finite and perfection is inhumane. Could we look at something we really want to wash off as quickly as possible and say “I see this. It hurts and is effecting me. I am not defined by this. I don’t like it but I’m not done yet. I am not alone with this.” • • #presentoverperfect #inthemess #fromthemiddle #inprocess #selfcompassion #faceyourdemons #thestoryisntover #fearnot #graceforthemoment #irl

Wednesday nights, as well as many others, our house is full. It has been refreshing and growing to be in regular company with a new group of people from all backgrounds and ages and cultures. We do stuff differently from how we approach a meal to how we pray but in a spirit of love, we figure out how to connect and build something together. Many communities have graciously welcomed our family in this dynamic city; we are thankful and wealthier for it. ❤️ • • • #abiggertable #unityindiversity #church #shalom #kingdomofgod #micasasucasa #ilovela #diversityandinclusion #culturaldiversity
