The Kids Will Be All Grown Up Before You Know It, So Cherish The Moments You Have Today

If you're a parent, you know how stressful the day-to-day can be. Sometimes, it's hard to really be in the moment with the planning and schlepping you have to do all the time.

Award-winning illustrator Dan Dougherty will make you reconsider how you approach your time with your kids after you see his "Beardo" comic about growing older.

It's amazing to watch your kids grow up into successful adults, but it's also difficult. After all, they'll always be your little baby. That's why it's ever so important to cherish every single moment that you have right now. Because, as we all know, now will soon be the past — in the blink of an eye.

You simply will never get these moments back.

How do you like to cherish the present, and how do you make memories with your tykes that will last a lifetime?

You can see more comics by Dan on his website.
