I try to approach each day with that in mind. Damn, I'm loosing.
That's why I was thinking that last night.

Some lessons you learn the easy way. I think of this almost every day, enjoying as much time as possible with our kids. We've got 2 girls, one will be 3 in a few weeks and the other is 7 months, just starting to develop her personality, and I love her more each day.
Last night I took our oldest to see fireworks (Canada Day). We took the 911 - I swear that kid is going to cost me some tickets - "daddy, go SUPERfast!!" "rock and roll!". Much faster and we'll have to wear helmets...
It was another one of those moments that I'll always want to relive when they're older. Those moments come every day, and I've learned that if you take the time to appreciate that fact, it actually seems to slow things down. I frequently remark that our youngest is "only" 7 months old - she seems to have been around so much longer!!!
