  • I Love You Marissa Leigh & Daylan Michael!!!!!

  • The backseat fights are over and we've all gone our seperate way's .

    I miss the silly pact's , and i remember we all wished that we were 18 so we get out.

    Funny part is, now they ( my two older sisters) want back in.

  • I swear no matter what life issue of anything Trace always has the perfect song for it he really is one of the best singer/song writers out there. Absolutely incredible I would love for the opportunity to just shake his hand and thank him for his works

  • my daughter is three now and it just seems like it was just yesterday i was holding her in my arms and we were looking at each other and i realize that we have a little girl and just when you think that wont grow up fast then they do. Next to god she is my soul and my hart i love her very much . Just makes a grown man cry sometimes.

  • @SuperHankjr I know how you feel....couldn't of said it better..

  • I am moving out next weekend and i am 18..I played this for my mom..She dont want me to go,but i have to start my life.I love my mom with all my heart and worried about leaving her,but she will understand..

  • Listening to this song&reading the other posts below make me tear up at the thought of that fateful day in 2 years time...when i leave home to head off to a 4 year university.yeah mom and dad will have my 2 younger sisters for a few more years, but im still both sad and excited for that day.Trace and the viewers who commented below are right..Us kids do grow up fast..i remember when it was all watching TV&spending time with "momma"7"daddy".now its all finishing high school&getting into college..

  • My husband and I have three kids of our own and are also foster parents. This song touches me sooo much. To think about how our kids are growing so fast and how sad it makes me that the parents of the children that we take in are missing out. Someday these babies are going to be grown. These "parents" should be ashamed. This song says it all. Pretty soon, in the blink of an eye, they are gone.

  • Those backseat fights are so memorable in my mind.

  • the first time I heard this song, I cried, crying again today watching the video...

  • My mom and I were talking and she was saying how she could very clearly remember the day I was born. The she looks over at my little boy who is 15 months old, and she said its amazing how 20 years ago I had my little miracle and now to see you with yours, it just shows how fast life goes by. Today watching my little boy, I cant help but remember when he was born and thinking about this new life growing in me and I cant help but wish life would slow down.

  • I'm a dad of 2 kids. A 2 year old daughter and a year old son. My eyes are all welled up because the day that they leave the "nest" will be the day I break down and cry in my bedroom. I cherish every day I have with my kids. I want them to be babies forever. Ah man. All I can do as a father is to be the best one I can be and always be there for them.

  • I remember the night my son was born, they laid him on my chest, I was 19. He will turn 6 on Sunday. I look at his baby pictures and it makes me sad cause he's growing up so fast, and becoming so independent. I miss rocking him to sleep at night, I miss being woke up in the middle of the night. or having him attach himself to my leg when I left him at day care. he will always be my heart, He made me grow up. I love you buddy

  • i love this song... my son is now 22, and I miss that little boy who used to curl up in my lap to read or for no particular reason at all, the little boy who used to ask me a million gazillion questions about Life and random things, his little hand in mine taking a walk in the woods making little discoveries, family times, etc... but I SURE DO love the MAN he has become... sometimes I catch that little fella behind his onery grin or his Beautiful eyes... I LOVE YOU Son... xoxo... <3

  • I had no idea this dude sang so many of the songs I am totally in love with!

  • I love this video and song it really makes me realize how fast kids do grow up. my lil boy will be 2 in october and it only feels like a couple weeks ago that i brought him home from the hospital. I love him with all my heart and enjoy every minute i have with him.

  • Years ago when I first heard this song it touched me very much, I could not listen to it without coming to tears, When my youngest daughter graduated I made a v ideo of all my daughters to this song, To this day it continues to move me, God bless you Mr. Adkins and continue to make those songs that truely touch our hearts.

  • i've gotta really give my wife credit i was never home with the youngn's growing up always on the road makin a livin i missed alot.

  • This song really depress's me because I was never blessed with finding someone to marry or have kids with. My life has been completely meaningless to me

  • @BHUB19 Of course your life isn't meaningless. You matter to God. God gave you a purpose in life. :)

  • It's songs like this that depress me cause I was never blessed with finding someone to marry or to have kids with. My life has been completely meaningless.

  • Whoa. I don' think I know this song. I thought I knew all of his songs? Lol I guess I was wrong. It is a good song though now that I'm listening to it. Is it new? Or is it an old one? If it's an old one I will admit I am stupid.

  • old

  • Wikipedia has all answers. :D

  • My son is nine and lives with my mom. It's amazing how much you can miss a kid when you see then once a week. I remember when he was struggling to crawl and now he's running up and down stairs and is almost to big for me to pick him up.

  • I crried myself when I heard this. I'm a daughter myself and sometimes I wonder if this is how my father feels sometimes.

  • God Bless You!!

  • It will get better. Give it time. A lot can happen in the future. Your not alone.

  • This song is so bittersweet for me. I have 3 children in their 20's and the "baby" is 15. While I am extremely proud of the people they are today, I really miss the babies that they were. It's funny that the things that used to drive me the craziest and now the things that I miss the most.

  • "love ur childhood don't rush it by, just go with the journey" i didn't think to until now and i'm 13.......my childhood has gone by so fast so has my journey in life...soon my little journey will end and a bigger 1 will start......life is just a constant change of jourmeys, 1 when u begin walking, another when school starts, another when u turn 13, another when school ends and another when u have kids then it keeps going with each generation born

  • oh yes im 18 and i wish i was 8 and the only thing that can go wrong is u didnt get the toy in the box of cireal im in collage and i ant to go back to just a kid

  • i was just saying, i miss being a little kid at least i miss it from 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 then i don't miss it.......my cousin died in a car accident when i was 3 1/2 and i miss her dearly, she was 9 and never got to live life or meet her lil sisters or even help babysit me when i was little, thats part of y i missed it, i just miss running around being cute and i miss my red hair, i look like a burnette now but them r little things i miss

  • im sorry i have 2 older brothers who r in irqa and i miss hanging out with them my oldest brother is the one who taght me to ride a two-wheller

  • its ok, she helped me through good and bad times. oh u must miss them alot especially ur oldest brother.......

  • i do he is my "Bubba" he is in Hawii ill see him in 2 years and i cant wait

To hear this son I cry everytime. I make sure They know how important they are to me everyday. They grow up so fast. It is really like a blink of an eye. Love your children and they will love you back.

  • They grow up so fast. My only child was 36 two years ago when I lost her in a car accident. Love your children and tell them every day how much you do love them. I'm so glad my daughter and I ended every conversation with I love you.
