12 hours ago, I had baby DD. Today she's 1.

There's no way it's been a year, so either someone has made the days shorter or someone has pressed fast forward. What the hell is going on?!?

Brieandchilli, I'm only 24 and that blows my mind too. I was born in '92, I started secondary school in 2003, so 2002 was only... Fourteen years ago Shock

I first graduated 20 years ago?! WTAF.

Is it wrong to wake one of them up for a hug?

Bear I still go and tell DD to shove up when she's in bed so I can get in and give her a cuddle. She's 19. I also go into her room before I go to bed to kiss her goodnight - if I forget, she tells me off next day.

See, I told you it was only a couple of years since I brought her home from hospital Grin

Oh, and it's not 21 years since I was sitting outside pubs in Camden ogling Britpop types and going clubbing until 4am when I had to be in work for 9am. It's not. Two, three years tops. Definitely.

My mother always said she still felt 21 inside and I rolled my eyes and scoffed at the silly old thing.

I've been 17 for 21 years now!

I know! Someone has replaced my newborn with an 8 month old, who can I write to?

My tiny newborn is now crawling and beginning to talk. Those 7 months has gone so quickly. Held a newborn today and for a fleeting moment it could have been the little monster chewing my knee. I had no idea that purple line to crawling could go so fast.

I also still think of my sister as about 14 as that was the age she was when I left home to go to boarding school, she is actually 32 with 2 children!!

The Millennium was 16 years ago!!!
I was already an adult! Something must have gone wrong with the space-time continuum because I'm still being IDed Grin

I'm not quite sure how I'm the owner of a nearly 6 year old, but it's an improvement on the toddler stage.

My baby brother is off to uni. When he was born, it occured to me that when he reached my age, I'd be in my mid-thirties and that seemed really old and grown up. He's now past that age and I'm still feeling like a teenager myself.
