When you're a kid, you don't realize you're also watching your mom and dad grow up.

I'm a mom whose kids are all grown, and I still feel it to this day. ๐
Lmao I'm a grown kid who's helping teach my dad a lot and it's so funny to see the back and forth, to see him excited about his work softball team or messing something up. He's one of those "always need to look fully in control" types so it's refreshing to see him actually be human sometimes
I'm glad to read that!
