We recently had a milestone birthday at our house

Our twins turned 21. As we were sitting at their birthday dinner I looked across the table. For a second i saw the little ones that once were them. Not as they are but as they were. Has that ever happened to you? Looking at one of your children as an adult but seeing instead the child? It really was a warm and wonderful feeling. See them for a second as they were, and then as they are.

This surely was a great feeling, the time passes so fast, you can still see them as they were.

@DocAndersen yes and although you are proud and happy for them, at the same time you feel a little sad inside

How cool is that? That your twins are 21? They grow up so quickly don't they?
