Time is a thief. I have watched y’all for so long seeing these kids grow up and it brings so many emotions as our youngest is about to turn 18. Congratulations Avia!!

[@janecoe9407]

AVIA IS A PRETTY GIRL BUT MY FAVE IS THE PUG! I HAD 2 PIUGS LOL. LOVE THE BREED.

[@LCM393]

Seeing the flashbacks really takes me back to sitting on my laptop after school every day watching you guys wishing I had a big family. I started watching before Brock was born now i'm 30 and Avia's graduating ... mad!

[@harleyyy420]

I feel ya on that! 🥺

[@mirellamaganja5930]

me tooo!!!!

[@haileysquibb8812]

me too ❤️

[@JazIsRad]

I’m 29 and your comment literally sent me baccccckk. Can’t believe these kids grew up this fast 😢

[@cindybejarano8519]

Saaaame!!! Been here since the beginning when Shay turned 30. Now I’m 30 myself and it’s just a wild thought! Love the whole family 🎉❤

[@emmajayne985]

Wow where has time gone? I’ve been watching for the past 13 years, it feels just like yesterday I was watching Emmie get stuck in the bathroom. Now Avia’s graduated and I’m now expecting my first baby, feels like a whole other life. Congratulations Avia! And thank you Shay and Colette for being our internet family 🥰

[@Sojogososlow]

I remember that I think she fell asleep on the floor or something lmao

[@Sierrabellex]

I don’t know if Avia will read this, but I always told myself back in the day when she was knee high to a grasshopper that if I ever met her I’d tell her exactly how special it is to be so strong and willful. She used to get a lot of people telling her she was bossy and “too much.” She’s not too much. She never was. She’s a strong, wonderful person and I am so lucky to have watched her grow into the person she is today. I’m so excited for what the future holds for her. She’s going to do GREAT!!

[@CoralBlueNmbrFive]

This comment is so sweet.

[@francovey7548]

Pass the tissues ...oh my goodness. All of those memories flashing by. Congrats to you all !! Spreading her wings, on to adulthood! I'm over here mopping up tears of joy for a young woman that I've watched grow from little Miss Baby Tard to a Graduate! May you be blessed in your next chapter!

[@rain-wanders]

It is such a weird thing to be so invested in people that are not your family members. Congrats Avia, Shay, and Colette. Avia truly is an amazing young lady, and I'm so proud of her, as someone who has followed you guys since the beginning. I'm amazed by her maturity, poise, and drive. Congrats again, Avia! Excited to see where life takes you.

[@Scotty_28]

Wow seeing the flashbacks from when she was little really hit me as a follower of this channel for the past 12 years. Just incredible. Congratulations Avia and Brailee! And yes, take life slow, all we have is right now, this day, do what makes you happiest and live with as much love as you can. It’s what truly matters now and in the end.

[@JAXXNCREATED]

"Time crawls by so quickly" That's something you told me a few years ago when I said Dax has gotten big, and its stuck with me since, I think about it a lot and its true, time crawls so fast, in the moment it feels like time is crawling then you're in the after and you realize how fast that time went by. You are a father to your own kids but you've also been a father figure to many other people out there who grew up without one present, thank you for that. Everyone messes up, but everyone can grow, and you grew unlike my dad could. Much love Shay.

[@tyreesetjjoyner1995]

Time flies by fast for the kids. Congrats to PrincessTARD for graduating. I can’t believe she’s all grown up.

[@miinope]

CRYING MY EYES OUT! She's such an incredible person! In 10 years time we'll be able to quote movies she's acted in and talk about how her smile has stayed the same and how she's only changed in the good ways. I can only imagine what a rock she has been for you guys and all the kids! Good luck Avia! You've got this!!

[@chelsearosen623]

This is the first video of yours I have watched in years and wow..I am emotional. I grew up with your family and even used your quote in my senior yearbook "the secrets to life are hidden behind the word cliche". I am 27 and started watching your family when I was in my early teens. You have had such an impact on my life and it is so comforting to be watching your family again. Congratulations Avia!

[@sophiarose8587]

It’s so crazy that I used to watch this channel for so long as a kid, I feel like it was yesterday. I just got into watching old content recently of my childhood and now all of them grown up time flies way to fast congratulations Avia 🎉

[@manoncerneau9961]

Did I cry like a baby??!! Ye!!😭 I started watching your family the day Daxton was born! Avia was still so small🥺.. Time flies !! Congratulations to your wonderful daughter!! You can be proud of this little amazing human you both created!! Lots of love ❤️

[@sherriejeffords7443]

I cried when Gavin left and I cried when she walked across the stage and I cried when the flash backs started. I have been with y’all from the beginning and can’t believe they are so grown up now!! 😢

[@shouldwemakethis]

9:24 "mom made BEEEANZ!" 😂 Love you guys!

[@ohjustme]

what an insanely precious gift not only for y'all but for avia to be able to look back on her life: the ups, the downs, the beauty of it all! congratulations on this new season of life, avia!

[@glittersmiles08]

I have been watching the Shaytards vlogs for about 13 years, seeing those flashbacks makes you realize how fast time goes and to hold onto those moments forever. In a blink of an eye, everything changes for the greater good, kids grow up and they are living their own lives. This family is my second family and I am so proud of everything this family has accomplished, the ups and downs of life you still continue to smile and make others laugh, and not only that but to teach us lessons. So thank you for everything! Congratulations Avia on your Graduation!

[@2rosenblaths]

This video had me teary-eyed. Especially in the flashbacks, I can't believe how grown Avia is now. I remember her so little watching the vlogs. Time goes by way to fast. Congrats Avia!

[@leslieu2750]

Ahh right in the feels. Been watching since 2010. Colette was the reason I wanted to be a mom, she made me feel like I could do it ( I lost my mom at age 15 in 2005. I’ve always love you guys. Now I have a 10 year old and 8 year old and it’s unbearable knowing how fast time goes by😢. Congratulations Avia! ❤🎉

[@Wiec222]

The way you love your kids heals a part of me that wishes my childhood was different. thank you guys for sharing your lives with all of us and allowing us to watch you guys grow together 😭Congratulations Avia!!! I hope all your wildest dreams come true. You’re meant for amazing things!

[@SHAYTARDS]

You are so kind

[@sithstan]

I’m so glad you guys are doing so well. I watched you guys at the start of youtube. You give me so much happiness.

[@TheMichaelaAnne1]

Such a dynamic, bright, motivated and hardworking young lady. She will accomplish great things❤️

[@Baynes1985]

You guys got me 😭! As someone that’s watched since she was lil it’s crazy how time flies.. you could always tell she was gonna be this headstrong, intelligent, savvy young woman. She’s going to do great things! Congratulations Avia 🎉

[@littlejonathorn6860]

Your baby Girl is growing up!!!! They grow up quick. One door closes and a new chapter begins. CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎈!!!! Huge Milestone.

[@mshockey73]

This one was a tearjerker. I've watched Avia and Brailee grow up. They're beautiful girls inside and out. Shay, Colette, Kayli and Casey you've all done a fantastic job raising your children. I know they're going to go out there and make the world a better place. Congratulations Avia and Brailee!

[@Phoenix-pv1pl]

I just graduated hs too and the montage made me cry. I literally grew up watching you guys and Avia and I are the same age. It’s really a bitter sweet moment and I can’t wait to see where life takes all of you. Much Love❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@picturetokurn]

that pic of colette is SO emmi they are IDENTICAL!!!

[@TheRaider8180]

I seriously couldn't tell you how long I've been watching.... Back in the SonTard, PrincessTard, and BabyTard days!!! Way back when Shay was a BIG guy! I'm not crying you ARE!

[@againstallodds0538]

This made me cry. Especially at the end. I followed you guys for over 10 years. I can't believe it's been this long. You all have a special place in my heart. You helped imagine what it feels like to have a loving family, and your advice at the end really hit hard because, at the moment, I feel totally lost. Just know that the world is much better with you in it. That's how much you all mean to me ❤. Congratulations, Princesstard. Viva Shaytards! Viva Butler Family!

[@Baby-_Wolf16]

Definitely wasn't crying for this😭 I love you guys

[@dormantxdisaster]

I’ve been watching regularly since winter 2008 when it was just sontard, princesstard, and babytard. Avia has grown up to be such a beautiful, talented, and driven young lady! So insightful and full of life! Well done mom and dad ❤

[@carlbaker9374]

I forgot how much I love Casey. He's such a character lol. You guys should do a fishing trip and vlog it or something.

[@calm713]

Neither of my parents came to my graduation for either HS or college. Father also never came to any of my baseball games. I largely raised myself. So this is one of the reasons why I watch the Shaytards, because I KNOW this is how a real loving family is supposed to be.

[@zacburns5156]

Sending you so much love, you've got such a supportive community here

[@meowJACK]

I didn't even go to my own graduation for similar reasons 🙃 I feel ya buddy

[@HouseMDaddict]

And if you choose to eventually have your own family, you know exactly what to do and what not to do thanks to the Shaytards showing you how a healthy (not perfect, no family is) family functions.

[@flowingover]

Did they have to work? I bet it kills them that they missed out but probably had to put food on the table and a roof over your head. Not everyone is rich and can stay at home all day like the Butlers

[@dixienormous6969]

​@TimeWarped Seriously? Overrated? I don't think so. At all. To graduate is a tremendous accomplishment and should be celebrated and acknowledged. It is not overrated in the slightest. And telling someone to move on? How insensitive can you be? You're terrible.

[@raegee2397]

I cried!! Like literally!! Just seeing the throw backs of Avia’s childhood and Im 6months pregnant!! 😭 hahaha

[@sydneyhelton4934]

Congrats, Avia! 😃❤️🖤💜💕💞✨🎉

[@beck1372]

I graduated 9 years ago and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve stopped, restarted, etc. You grow with time, and growth isn’t linear. But you learn so much as time goes on. You won’t have everything figured out at 18; I didn’t have anything figured out 😂 but it’s time that teaches you every step. ❤

[@autumnStarr82453]

ive watching you since you started its crazy how time flys! congrats to both the girls! ❤

[@sandranewman342]

Wow those flashbacks really make me realize how long I’ve been watching your family, time really has flown by but I want to say a huge congratulations to Avia for graduating high school, it’s such an exciting time to be taking on the next chapter and I can’t wait to see what you do next🥰 also I definitely also agree with what you were saying at the end about the next chapter and choosing what you want to do no matter your age and everything cause I’ll say I’m about to be 26 and I’m still trying to figure out where I want to go in life like I’m just taking one day at a time figuring my own path at my own pace where one day soon I’ll be where I want to be😊

[@JasonNielsenCreations]

Congratulations Avia! I graduated High School in 2010 so this is a surreal moment for me. I can remember coming home from school and looking out for the new ShayTards video. How time is flying by now a days. Love you guys!

[@picturetokurn]

seeing the flashbacks just reminded me that i'm old too ahhh i remember watching the vlogs in 2014

[@xProudxIrishxGirlx]

To think I was younger than Avia when I started watching you guys and I’m now 31 is unbelievable. Congrats Avia and congrats both of you on raising a lovely human ❤

[@moniquebourque4453]

Omg I’m so emotional, thanks for making cry on my lunch break😭😭 love you guys!!!

[@Confidential619]

Shay was all like "don't tell mom she looks stressed out" then daxton: "MOM you look sooo stressed out" I was cracking up laughing literally out loud haha.

[@GabeVeasey]

Oh the flashbacks nearly had me crying.

[@melschehr5310]

I got the chills watching avia graduate. Been watching since she was 4!

[@ambootique]

My goodness, I remember watching all of these young adults as tiny people on this channel. It makes me happy for Avia, and sad all at the same time. My oldest is 18 and graduated last year, and our baby will graduate next year. Watching y’all’s memories brought back so many of my own because I remember watching the SHAYTARDS with my kids. Congratulations Avia!! May God continue to bless your life’s journey 🫶🏼

[@SuperMusicalPassion1]

It’s crazy how time flies. I’m getting teary eyed watching the video, photo compilation

[@brennazoe101]

I didn’t think I was going to cry watching this video but I did this video is surreal for me to watch

[@cindy8031]

3yrs ago was my first daughter ,drive thru graduation due to covid,I cried for 2days and this yr was my baby daughter graduations and something .It's like when they say mom and dad for the first time,walk , drive.Its something as parents we can't explain how amazing it is 💞

[@kaylan2879]

Ok, i'm sobbing? nOT MY PARASOCIAL LIL SISTER GRADUATINGGG wah!! love u guys

[@katgirl1921]

wow time flies and now she is all grown up. congratulation to to Ava aka PrincessTard I have been watching since she was little and watched her grow up with her siblings . Can't wait to see what the happens next. I cried seeing the flashbacks of Ava so cool that you have all those moments capture and that when they have children of their own they can show the Vlogs to their children and re live those memories over again. That i why i keep a journal to write down memories of that i want to look back on and i put pictures and things from things we did good luck Ava and she is going to do awesome things

[@misscoffee6773]

The best example that I've heard when your children leave Is that it feels like a break up. Only your breaking up on good terms.

[@RonnieFarrellofficial]

Love you all so much best amazing family ever

[@colleendemaria]

milestones like this are so emotional for all viewers but especially the ones like me who have been watching since day 1 🥹❤️ congratulations avia!

[@mireyarenteria5646]

Been here forever ❤ congratulations PrincessTard !love you guys forever

[@dorothycho2467]

I'm also a part of the Class of 2023 and graduated in May. It is such a beautiful moment where you can see the path open up before you. Once that tassel is moved to the right, you are already taking your first step on your set path. I am starting college this fall at the beautiful Westwood campus of UCLA. It's amazing how fast children grow up, and Avia is absolutely no exception. I am so excited to see what the future holds for my Class of 2023!! 🤩

[@itstreyalexander25]

the flashbacks OMG 🥺🥺 I remember watching them, it doesn't feel like it was that long ago. Time is a thief and were just along for the ride

[@cameronquisenglovify]

The flashbacks 🥺 congrats Avia ❤️

[@emmamaupin8885]

i’ve watched them since i was about 10 or 11 years old 🥲 now i’m 20 & times flies by so fast! i remember she was just a teeny tiny little girl! congratulations avia, so immensely proud of you!!

[@nardiamcphee5239]

Aww the memories I’m in tears. Congrats Avia and brailee! And in a few years we’ll have Emmi, gage and Cooper graduating 😮

[@crawford73]

Congratulations to both of these beautiful young ladies, all four of you did an amazing job teaching your kids how to survive on their own. The flashbacks made me tear up, I remember them at that age!

[@charliemds]

i can’t with carlie she’s too funny. time has flew and i’ve enjoyed watching avia grow up. good luck to her in the future. also both you and colette are the best with advice and i really do reflect on what you guys say so thanks!

[@meganshea2202]

You guys don’t understand how happy it makes me still seeing content yearrrsssss later🤍 watching Gavin and Avia grow up along with all the other kiddos is so great🤍 love you guys so much

[@flowingover]

I dont know Why but watching Colette hold the baby made me so emotional. She just has so much love to give and these children are such proof of this❤

[@emberssxx]

Wow time is really flying. I literally grew up watching you guys, 18 now & I still absolutely love you guys. Such a warming family that gives reality and still makes peace out of everything, it’s truly amazing!

[@karenm121]

Congratulations Princesstard!!!! The sky is the limit 🎉 I am sobbing my eyes out with all the flashbacks. I started watching when Brock was born. I remember being so interested I went back and watched all your videos since the beginning. You guys are family. Avia you are a powerhouse girl! You are destined for great things. Love you guys thanks for continuing your vlogs ❤

[@PascaleLaurent81]

Okay, I wasn’t expecting to weep over someone I’ve never met but been watching grow through all the milestones of her 18 years of life apart from her birth to her first words but wow Avia…you’re graduated and an adult. A gorgeous young woman with so much love and support as life awaits. Congratulations to you and cannot wait to see what the future brings to you. Amy is next…well in 3 years but ugh…Y’all growing so fast 😂 which makes me realize how old I’m getting 😂 42 but hey I’m not that old eh Love you guys ❤

[@ScottKelley]

Man...the flashbacks... the memories... I've watched this family grow up, it's exciting and sad at the same time... time goes by way too quickly especially when you watch these transition videos like this. Love all you guys.

[@kazashka1]

Shay, after not watching you for around 7 years and becoming a full adult myself🥲I would Like to say that you did a great job on raising your kids and creating such a beautiful family(and yeah, we all know it’s always ups and down) But I feel that there is a BIG LOVE,trust and support in your family🙏🏼Keep it up🙌🏼 I cried my eyes out watching Avies vids😢 Good luck to her and best of all🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 We love you Shay ❤️❤️❤️

[@Vaguely_professional]

I’ve been watching you guys since I was seven I’m 16 now man time flies. I remember when your kids were babies and now they’re all grown up! I can’t believe your kids are graduating

[@kylierose4508]

[@maisarah7197]

Thank you for opening up to us and let us be a part of your growth. It's crazy to see the kids growing, as I also am growing along with you guys. I'm also graduating university next month. Thanks for all the great memories x

[@mandystanhope]

This is such a beautiful and emotional vlog. The flashbacks brought tears to my eyes. I remember those days in the vlogs What a wonderful thing that you have all of the memories to look back at. Avia is the type of young woman who will change the world. I have no doubt. Congratulations Avia 🎉

[@MariaDGallagher]

Oh my goodness the Princesstard throwbacks 🥹 we love you Avia!!! It’s been so fun watching you grow up- you have a whole internet family that’s so proud of you!!!

[@corrynhart9516]

I cried this whole video, watching yall as a child I always compared Avis to myself b/c shes closest in age to me and it truly makes you realize how much time flies by.

[@omgee8190]

The flashbacks always hit hard

[@jetskitonio]

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen your guys videos and just wow this is crazy. I started watching when I was young, I’m 22 now and just had my own daughter recently, time just flies by man. This video made me happy to see, we’re growing up man🥲

[@AM-sq6ur]

How emotional… 🥹 I appreciate this vlog a lot. So many memories. Thank you ❤

[@Ohissabee]

This is so weird, I grew up watching you guys and everyday after school being excited to watch the newest daily vlog. It's so cool that you guys have stuck around long enough for us to see the kids actually grow up and I'm so grateful to have been able to be a "part" of it. Thank ya'll and congrats avia and brailee ♥

[@anthonysodano6701]

Congratulations Avia! It was great seeing the whole family and many blessings 🙏🙏🙏

[@HouseMDaddict]

"Any other words of wisdom?" "Mom made BEANS!" 🤣😂. Those boys in the car with Daxton imitating you so funny.

[@fashion11040]

Wow those flashbacks just made me think about growing up with y’all 🥲❤️ I remember watching all of them and watching Avía grow up. Congrats Avia!

[@MissCMcCafferty]

what an emotional video, Princess Trad all grown up. Been here since it was just the trio of children and now its a full squad and Avia is graduating

[@winterbrookgaming8927]

“Mom made beans” 😂 forever gonna live off those words of wisdom Brock. Thank you

[@JanGlazewski]

The flashbacks had me crying. Cannot believe I've been watching for this many years!!!😢❤

[@kathywolfe9020]

I ‘be watched you guys from the beginning. I remember when you guys use to drive to the post office hoping to get your check from You Tube. I can’t believe time has flown by . Beautiful family .

[@rebekahwhitcomb2396]

Thank you guys so much for sharing your life with us so publicly. It’s been therapeutic/joyous to watch y’all grow as a family. Thank you for making so many of us feel like we’re part of your family. Many memories locked away that I’m sure you’ll be thankful to watch back as time continues to move forward. Shay you are right that we all need to live in the moment and to not take what we are currently living for granted. You can’t get those moments back. Enjoy every moment.

[@BP-.-]

Man. I used to watching you guys non stop about 8 years ago and watched the family grow. I’ve come back and now they’re all grown up. It’s made me realise how much I’ve grown up at the same time🥲 I love you guys and will be back to watch

[@celi707]

Thank you guys for sharing your life with us. Been watching since your first move to LA. I was a teenager. At one point, you guys were the only positive example in my life. Now I’m 29, married, and have a whole different perspective on life. I try my best to be that positivity for others. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Congratulations Avia 💖.. and Colette and Shay for creating such a beautiful family.❤

[@HouseMDaddict]

I remember Avia having always been super fearless and inspiring. I still remember when she wanted to be a cop to help people, and the clip of her at church where she did a speech in an empty room about being kind to people. We can't wait to see her follow her dreams and continue to inspire and help people through her work! You guys did a great job fostering the independence and compassion in her and should be as equally proud in yourselves as you are in her, on who she is today.

[@pimp101000]

If You’re not crying 😭😭😭already the little montage close to the end will get you I bin with the shay tarts forever, like when they first started and I will always stay with them forever. It’s like my little family away from my family. Thank you for making videos and congratulations to both graduates may your journey be filled with lots of fun and joy and that it’s just so magical Congratulations. 🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@mekaylaa.g]

oh my goodness. I truly can’t believe this I started watching you guys when I was 5 and now I’m 13 and Avia is graduating. time really has flown by.

[@mindybone]

It is a grieving process. Our kids move on to their new life and we grieve them not being with us every day. I cried once you put in the old clips of avia. I have been watching since the beginning. So proud of Avia and Gavin!

[@humashoukat2367]

Why am I so sad? This is so beautiful!!! Congrats AVIA!!! You'll go so far in life

[@MAHA-aaaaaa]

But wait a sec i still didn’t get over Gavin’s graduation and him moving out🥺 congrats Avia❤️❤️❤️

[@Jiniweanie]

Im just a year older than Avia yet I still feel like I watched her grow up (though I was growing up at the same time) and I just love the amount of nostalgia the Shaytards give to millions of people! ❤

[@kerrilyedwards]

I have goose bumps watching the flash backs of her growing up ❤️ have loved watching your beautiful family grow up 🥹

[@bjorndesilva6023]

I remember watching you guys since elementary now I’m 21 it’s crazy how time flies and all the kids are all grown up
