Throwback Photo of the Day ~ Baby Eli

Rupert, Idaho
September 7, 2019 7:46pm CST
Hey everyone, I wanted to post something but was not sure what. A lot of the photos on my computer are too big and need resized for the most part. However, this photo was a size that works....so I will go ahead and share it! This is Eli when he was a few months old (not sure how many exactly). I can't believe he is going to be 6 years old in 2 months and 12days! What do you think of the photo? Do you think that kids grow up too fast?

He looks so adorable. Oh, yes, as they say kids grow up in the blink of an eye.

@MommyOfEli2013 but in the initial years, we have to take a lot of care and many sleepless nights too.

Eli looks wonderful in that image. I have this feeling that children are being rushed to grow up too fast these days.

@MommyOfEli2013 That is the right way to raise Eli. Let him enjoy his childhood for as long as he can.

@Deepizzaguy That's what I thought...although I would like him to still be mature enough to not throw a tantrum over everything.

Eli was a very beautiful baby, that's for sure! I can tell it's him, his facial features are close to the same:)

Thank you, we thought so as well :) Always loves his chubby little baby face :) But now he has a very handsome 5 year old face! Glad that you can tell it is him, I know some can change quite a bit as they grow up!

It's such a nice photo. Children do grow and so did we. Once we were that size too, now we're adults. Time does go by and it seems so fast at times. Time and growing is the same, just that we seem to notice it more with children and ourselves. Don't worry, just enjoy your children for they'll definitely grow up as we did and be adults all too soon.

That is such a cute photo! So lovely! We also look at our kids' photographs of when they were much younger, and it rekindles some nice memories. The kids also feel happy on seeing those pictures.
