My daughter starts kindergarten tomorrow and so many people have said "doesn't it feel like the blink of an eye?" Honestly - not really! It feels like an eternity, and each stage has gotten much more progressively interesting, especially since about 3. I'm super excited for her to move to the next stage. Unpopular opinion I guess.

I feel the same. Mine are in 4th and 6th grade now and it doesn't feel like the blink of an eye. I am looking forward to when they are totally independent and on their own! [ Reply | More

I felt that way until my kids started K, and then elementary school breezed by in a blink of an eye. My DD is almost done (5th) but it seems like she was just in K. Maybe it's because my own elementary school years felt so long, but from a parent standpoint, it's pretty quick. [ Reply | More

OP. For me the years have not gone by particularly fast. Maybe because I was with her all the time? It may seem quicker in elementary school. [ Reply | More

I'm the same. I felt like my oldest DD was so ready for k and baby, toddler, and preschool years seemed so slow. Now people say "Can you believe she's in middle school?" And I think, yep, seems about right. [ Reply | More

mine is going into 9th grade, and I do think it feels like a blink of an eye, but probably didn't when she was little. I was dying for her to enter elementary school because she was really ready for actual schoolwork. now, I'm reading about colleges because I think that it'll come really fast! [ Reply | More
