IKEA has a new commercial that might just bring you to tears. Recently, I snapped a quick pic of me giving my 5-year-old a kiss on the cheek, and he rolled his eyes at me. That moment hit me hard, reminding me that my little boy is growing up fast. Before I know it, he may not want me to read him bedtime stories or walk him to the school door. Those sweet moments when he says, “Mommy, I love you most,” will soon be memories.
Grab a glass of wine, because IKEA knows this transition is unavoidable. Their latest ad hits home, reminding us that regardless of how much our kids grow, they’ll always be our babies at heart.
I know it sounds like a cliché, but trust me, just watch the commercial. Thanks, IKEA—I’ll be here sobbing for eternity.
