You ever look at old pictures of your kids and start crying?

Man I feel like such a pussy. Looking at pictures back when they were 3-5. Maybe I’m going through menopause.

Sure would be nice to go back.

Same, but usually only when they're acting up/out of control or giving me attitude.

Just think of what little turds they’ve turned into as teenagers and you won’t feel as bad.

That’s what makes me miss the 4 year olds.

I look at recent pics of my kids and start welling up.

Mainly because I know they are becoming independent and that saddens me

No, but putting my daughter's "Class of..." sign up was tough.

I'm sure "The Torch" does.
Those pictures probably remind him of his failure as a parent.
If they don't, they damn well should.

It might be time to get on some test.

The song, The Cats in The Cradle, couldn't be truer. My kids are 25 and 23. They go from needing you, relying on you and wanting to be around you, to being so busy and caught up with life, they find it hard to make time for you.
Don't get me wrong, they are great kids, but it's just life, I guess.

Wife and I watched video of ours a couple of years ago and it hit pretty hard. The passage of time is both a thing of beauty and a cruelty.

I have 7 little rugrats at my house along with quite a few adults here for a big fish fry im throwing.

Makes me glad that my daughter is in her late 20s and my stepdaughter is 21. I mean kids are cool and all, but my life is too good as it is.

My daughter came in the game room while I was watching the VT vs Carolina game and asked me to play with her. I almost didn't until I realized there will come a day when she'll be to cool for me and I'd kill for those moments where she wanted to hang out.

We wrestled around and played store for most of the 2nd half. I know the days of reminiscing on old pictures aren't too far away.

Have a 4 and 3 year old right now and it’s awesome 95% of the time, with the other 5% being mostly an absolute war at bedtime every. single. night.

If you’re saying I’ll look back on that fondly, I just don’t see it.

Yes, when I think about how much money I spent, JK. I think everyone gets nostalgic on occasion.
