Somewhat same vein I tell my coworkers who are going to be new parents: Time really flies with kids.

One minute you're changing diapers, next thing you know they are walking, then they're in middle/high school and have their friends they'd rather be with. As hard as it was I still tear up a little watching old video clips of ours as a toddler.

I’d just like to echo this. I was told this when I had my first child, I understood what it meant and it seemed kind of obvious… It went by so much faster than I could have imagined.

It’s actually baffling to me to think about my own childhood and how long it felt to me then - only for it to go by so quickly from the other side.
