Brace yourselves, parents. The latest IKEA commercial is bound to tug at your heartstrings and might even leave you in tears. A few weeks ago, I snapped a photo of my 5-year-old son giving me a kiss on the cheek, and his eye roll was a stark reminder that he won’t always be my little boy. Before long, he’ll likely prefer to read on his own rather than listen to bedtime stories, and asking me to walk him to the school door will be a thing of the past. Those sweet moments when he declares, “Mommy, I love you most,” will eventually fade away.
Pass the Wine!
IKEA is acutely aware of this poignant transition in parenthood. Their new ad serves as a heartfelt reminder that, no matter how old our children grow, they will always hold a special place in our hearts. Yes, I know it sounds cliché, but just take a moment to watch the video.
Thanks a lot, IKEA. I’ll be here sobbing indefinitely.
