You know that saying about how the days feel like they drag on but the years fly by? No one feels that more intensely than a parent. This week, singer Lila Carter shared a poignant reminder on her Facebook that’s sure to bring on the tears just in time for Mother’s Day. Seriously, grab your tissues. There’s nothing that can make a mom’s heart ache quite like a video that highlights how quickly her little ones are growing up, edging closer to the day they’ll leave home. You’re left staring longingly at baby photos and praying they remember to call—wait, is that just me? Wipes tears

Lyrics That Hit Home

“Slow down
Won’t you stay here a minute more?
I know you want to walk through the door,
But it’s all too fast,
Let’s make it last a little while.
I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly.
I am your biggest fan,
I hope you know I am.
But do you think you can somehow,
Slow down?”

Ugh, just take me now.

In her post, Lila wrote, “I don’t think there’s a more commonly spoken phrase from mothers of all ages about their children of any age than ‘It’s going by too fast.’ I feel like I’m constantly trying to hit the brakes on time, celebrating each milestone while secretly wishing I could build a time machine in my garage to go back to those midnight rocking sessions.” Yep, I can relate.

“If you’ve ever watched your child sprint across a field, stride across a graduation stage, or walk down the aisle clutching a bouquet, you’ll understand why this song resonates with me,” she added. “Enjoy the video… let’s cherish those moments we wish we could pause and share them with our loved ones.”

I’m not crying—you are!
