Time is growing but not me

It's really weird this year, well maybe not weird but strange.

Each holiday I usually travel with my family out to the country to have dinner with my mom and brother's sponsors for getting them in the country. All these people are there, family on my sister in law's side. Vietnamese friends of my brother. It's a bunch of us, probably 20. I've gone every life as far back as I can remember. I was the baby there, I was the child there, I was the teen there. The house has stayed about the same side every year too small to fit us all. But now, things are crazy seeming. Just about everyone has babies now. There were at least 6 or something babies there. Like everyone has children now, it's crazy these people use to be the teens, then the married adults and now the parents. Even my brother and sister in law have a child now. It's so weird last year probably this time I am sure there were no babies or at least not this many. Now everyone has one. It's so weird, it just makes me feel like time has moved past me, like time has grew but I am still the same.

Babies are everywhere. I mean I have a niece now, probably one I won't see often, probably one that will barely remember me as she ages as I won't be in the picture really. It's just funny. There is a joke in all this somewhere, I just need to find it.
