Tom Brady can't believe how fast time flies.

The retired NFL star shared a sweet photo on his Instagram Story Sunday from exactly a decade prior that day, where he holds his daughter Vivian Lake in his lap as an infant.

"10 years ago today w my little angel Vivi Lake ❤️❤️," he captioned the adorable shot.

In the picture, Brady and Vivian both wear white as they sit up in bed together and look at the camera for the shot. Vivian rests her little hand on top of her dad's as he props her up.
