You're Gonna Miss This

Hearing an entire basket of toys spill out after just cleaning a room…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.

An entire bucket of water being poured out of the bath tub…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.

Trying to change a diaper while my child rolls over and gets poop everywhere…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.

Trying to clean up one mess and walk out to see my 2 year old peeing off the balcony down onto the living room furniture…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.

The tantrums when I say “no”…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.

The nightly bedtime struggle to “stay in bed and go to sleep”…

I have to remind myself:

You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this.
