Emma Heming can't believe how quickly time is passing by, and just how fast her daughters are growing up.

The doting mom shares two daughters with Bruce Willis, to whom she has been married since 2009: Mabel Ray, 12, and Evelyn Penn, ten. The Die Hard actor is also a dad to daughters Rumer, 35, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 30, who he shares with Demi Moore, his wife from 1987 to 2000.

And though the Make Time Wellness founder has a careful approach to sharing details about her family life, she does occasionally delight fans with heartwarming updates about her girls, the latest being no exception.

Bruce Willis' daughters look so grown up during visit to NYC with mom Emma Heming

On Tuesday, Emma, who appears to be enjoying a getaway to New York City with Mabel and Evelyn, took to Instagram and shared an adorable video reminiscing over past visits to the city.

It first showed a clip of the sisters walking hand in hand down a busy street, looking no older than four or six years old, followed by photos from the same visit that captured them with their arms around each other as they continued to walk through Prince Street in SoHo.

It then cut to a similar but recent video, of the girls looking so much taller similarly walking in SoHo, this time down Broadway, and that was followed by another of them walking by Bryant Park, and they adorably look back at their mom to say hi to the camera.

Emma shared: "I never wanted our daughters to think that this was some kind of family secret that we have to keep," adding: "I felt like it was very important for us to come out and say what it was."

She emphasized: "I wanted them to see us go out and raise awareness, and on a global scale, because that's the kind of reach that their father has. And I know that he would want us to do that, so that was very important."
