When my mom commented on my gray hair.

How do you think that makes your mom feel?

I realized I graduated from HS 15 years ago. Actually, that was during a conversation with my mom and after that realization both of us needed a moment.

My daughters found some of our high school pictures over the weekend and my wife and I realized our girls were closer in age to us in those pics than we are now, even though it still doesn't seem like that long ago.

I was going through some boxes in our basement and found some cassette tapes. My 9 year old daughter had no idea what they were.

Getting a smile from a good looking woman while I'm out in public, then realizing she's smiling because my 2 year old son is cute as heck, and she didn't notice me.

Looking in the mirror, realizing I am getting less hair on the top of my head to have to cut, more hair on my ears that I have to cut.

I remember floppy disks. Had them when I started school in 99.

Realilzing that people who started school the year I started high school have now progressed through every grade and have themselves graduated high school

I was leaving the Y one day after working out, and this little boy (maybe 3) kept looking at me and smiling. Then he asked his dad if I was grampa.

The fact I saw "Jaws" and "Star Wars" in the theater.

Sigh.
