I don't know about you all but I don't understand how our babies grow so freakin fast. My son is 7 today and is starting grade 2 on September 8th. It seems like just yesterday he was just so little and innocent that I had to keep him from getting hurt. WOW.... Have you had any of these feeling before? You probably have, I have heard people say this it seems a thousand times. I hope your all having a great day. Let me know how many kids you have and how old they are oh yea and how did you feel when they got to these milestones? ie. kindergarten and whatever other ones you wanna talk about.

I know exactly what you mean. It seems like yesterday that my daighter was running around in her diaper. She will graduate this year. the time sure does fly by. She will be 18 in February also. She is the only child I have. I took a picture of her on her first day of kindergarten and now we are getting ready to have senior pictures made.

All I can say is enjoy every single moment with them that you can, because one day they will be grown up, and they'll be thinking and talking about all the good times and the bad times they went through! My baby is 22yrs old, and my oldest is 40yrs old, and I know that being involved with work all the time, I missed a lot of quality time, but now I can make it up by enjoying my grandchildren! And all I am saying is take advantage of the time you get to spend time with them, because time has a way of waiting for no one! Children really are the greatest gift a person can cherish!

My daughter turned 2 back in April. Whenever I see a baby now, I wonder where my little 7lbs 9oz baby went to. She is talking heaps now & seems to get better everyday. She also started gymnastics about 4 months ago & I have watched her confidence within herself just grow. It;s true what they say about treasuring your kids when they're young.

LOL Yea I am finding now I want another one. Everyone around me is either pregnant or just had babies and I miss all that. But at the same time I am enjoying all the funny things my 2 are already doing. I wish time could slow down a bit. Thanx for your response
