Four big moments from one child's life (a baby, a new pet, the first day of school and a lost tooth) appear mixed up, then go onto a timeline arrow one at a time in the order they happened, with the child now near the end of the arrow. The moments are counted and read from left to right, and the video ends on the recap that a timeline shows big moments in the order they happened.
