I have heard from so many parents of older kids that the baby stage is so temporary even though it feels endless and helpless while you're in it. Knowing that my older one is a preschooler for just a couple of years, then I only have 5, 3, 5 left before he's an adult really scares me...!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-days-are-long-but-the-years-are-short#post-1241036 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 10:42:18 +0000 mrsjyw 1241036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: so true!! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-days-are-long-but-the-years-are-short#post-1241034 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 10:41:49 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1241034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: thanks! i know, it made me sad too, though the 2nd thing that crossed my mind was, "why are the teenage years the longest?!" - hahaha</p> <p>@BabyMats: @SugarplumsMom: thank you! today is a new day!</p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: sigh. so true! one day she's not going to want to hold my hand or sit in my lap and i'll be really sad.</p> <p>@locavore_mama: it's such a great quote! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-days-are-long-but-the-years-are-short#post-1240650 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 09:12:29 +0000 Alivoo01 1240650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@edelweiss: Same here.
