Forgive me for the cliché, but children do grow up so fast. And parents usually document their precious moments by taking pictures or shooting video, but one single dad from Taiwan has his own method of making sure he remembers what it's like raising kids.

To capture the joys and difficulties of parenting he faces in his everyday life, Lan Shengjie (aka BLUE) is illustrating them. "I have been working as a freelance artist since 1999," BLUE told Bored Panda. "I started this cartoon drawings series right after my child was born in 2014." Recently, Sharp Point Press has even published it.

"When you have a kid, a lot of things happen unexpectedly. However, as I started drawing the surprising moments we shared as father and son, I didn't think these cute drawings would get such a hugely positive response."

BLUE said he's usually rushing through his beautiful drawings since he's always taking care of his boy. "I hope that my child can grow up in a safe and healthy environment," he added. "I worry about him becoming a hooligan or anything else that can go wrong along the way. That's why I always try to accompany him as he's growing up and help him when I can."

This is real life. I once sat in an un-air conditioned Wendy's bathroom, waiting for my 4 year old to take a dump...45 minutes later....

this terrifies me. I was carrying my baby niece like this one fine day but then it decided to storm. it's a really scary when you felt the instinct to run quickly to shelter but you don't want to shake the baby too much. I never got the courage to carry another baby anymore, I don't want to cause them any hurt.

Patience and a non-shake hand. But it feels great when it is done. :)

Yes, this is incredibly painful. And it happens all in a sudden.

Favorite sport: rolling over when the completely filled diaper has just been opened.

What about it? I cut my own hair and I do it in the bathroom. It's the easiest place to keep the hair contained and sweep it up. If you're holding a child while having his hair cut it makes sense to sit down, and the toilet makes sense. Not sure what the problem is with the location.

Love the location! Where else can you cut hair without it getting all over furniture, etc. Love the perspective!

Lol. Hopefully the museum doesn't have an audio system installed as well.

kids are always moving...it's practically impossible to take a nice, unblurred picture of them!
