"It Won't Be Like This For Long:" The Best Parenting Advice We Don't Want to Hear Courtesy of Darius Rucker

Time flies when you're having fun. Time moves excruciatingly slowly when you are sleep deprived and can't seem to get the baby down for a nap. What do these things have in common? They don't last forever. We are going to talk about just how fast things move when it comes to raising kids and why we hate the phrase "I miss those days." "It Won't Be Like This For Long" by Darius Rucker is the perfect song to describe this moment in time.

Mentioned in This Episode:

• Yellowstone
• Caddyshack
• Kairos Moment

Show Notes:

• 4:04 Dad Life Sound Check - The Series "Yellowstone" provides both parenting advice and music from Ryan Bingham. Flatland Cavalry makes Dave feel older than he is.
• 13:10 Farm Boy Update - Mick has a mole problem on the urban farmstead.
• 15:15 HARDY Report - "Quit!!" has Dave wanting to see HARDY perform live once again.
• 18:39 The Dads break down why "It Won't Be Like This For Long" is such a perfect summary of the fact that life changes faster than you think when it comes to raising kids. They also touch on the fact that when you are in the middle of it you aren't always the most receptive to hearing about how people miss it. Dave needs to go and research the word Kairos as well.
