I have a great relationship with my daughters. My older twins (19) still hug me before leaving or going to bed. My younger twins (8) are daddy's girls too, and hopefully that doesn't change.

First child, a daughter, turns 6 months old next week and have already cried multiple times thinking about where all the time has gone. Time has a weird way of presenting itself though. The days feel like weeks sometimes and the weeks feel like days.

Am I the only one that finds this thread cringy?
Parents that worship their children usually have the worst children.

I have a 13 year old daughter. This thread is depressing.

My daughter will be 16 next month. She will always be 3 in my heart but I know she is growing up and away. We have a great relationship. She goes out of her way to spend 30 minutes to an hour talking to me most days of the week. She ain't afraid or embarrassed to talk about anything in her life. She knows I love her unconditional and have her back no matter what but will point out when she is wrong....and she trusts my judgement and does not resent me saying she was wrong (not for long anyway LOL). She is an amazing young woman and there ain't no telling where she goes in life but I know if I am around I want to be there to see it.
She has dated the same boy for over 2 years now. I hated that bastard to begin with LOL. He is 16 as well, about to be 17. Works the same job he started when he was 15. Has always been willing to help me out around the house and the sawmill. I have put him through his paces. He has proven up to the task. While I still don't like the idea of them being together and all that means I fully understand that them being together as long as they have has meant she isn't exposed to assholes and mean little bastards and always involved in romantic drama....I actually appreciate him for keeping her grounded romantically. Still despise the fricker though....

It sucks. But try to be chill and let the little things slide… she will be out the house before you know it
Mine is 21 and living on her own. 15 year old son… so not far from that at all
I’d love to go back to when they were single digits. I was broke, etc.
Enjoy it new parents…. The days are long, but the years are short

We have two daughters. The youngest one just went off to college last August making us official empty nesters. At times it is difficult. Sometimes on a weekend or after work I find myself just looking at their rooms. They are not there, but so much of their childhood is still there. Pictures with friends, awards from school, trophies from playing sports, their beds and other random things that remind me of certain times of their lives. I have random memories of things when they were babies, or 5 years old, or 15 years old and I think to myself....wow that seems like a different lifetime now. Was that even really my own life back then or just someone else?
Best thing I can tell younger parents is to learn to hold on to moments as they pass. We all think about the future way too much and miss the present.
It's not all bad though when they grow up. Not at all. My wife and I feel a deep sense of pride and accomplishment seeing them all grown up now. They are both well adjusted young women forging a great life for themselves. Somehow we did something right along the way. And that's a great feeling.

Look closely into the garment bag, just over the boy's left shoulder.

Is that a dildo in the bottom?

Despite her age, she loves to show me new clothes got just like when she was little.
I treasure that

I love my daughter with no reservations.
But grandchildren rock. You get to do it again but with a touch more wisdom and much less stress. Mine are so much fun.
People say, you can give them back. So not it. She comes up with some of the wildest things. Never ending source of entertainment just being herself.
She had the flu not long ago and felt terrible. Laying on me sobbing. Sat up and vomited on me.
What’s crazy is I didn’t even mind.
