Everyone Is Once Again Surprised Jacob Tremblay Isn't A 3-Foot-Tall Small Child Anymore

"Time isn't real."

Every now and then, we are reminded of our own mortality in the form of someone we thought of as a child not being a child anymore.

It's called aging, and it's rough to watch!

I'm talking about things like Nadya "Octomom" Suleman's octuplets being in high school.

Sophia Grace having a child.

And my favorite fun fact to throw out there: All of the teen moms have teens of their own now.

It's bleak for us oldies!
