Really? When my kids were young (< 10, so a 12 year span), they were recognizably different cognitive functioning every month or so. Every month was a whole new game.

But yes, I do remember some of the early games, building block towers, as if they were yesterday.



Oh the kids themselves are different! But every day follows pretty much the exact same format, and if we try to mix it up they punish us harshly. (I kid but you get the idea).


Yeah agreed, in the moment it feels so much more meaningful and enjoyable but in retrospect.... where did the time go?

I suspect it's because we don't have enough time for introspection as the kids grow so there's nothing to anchor/solidify those memories.


Apparently sleep is when we form our memories and they make sure I don't get much of that.
