We're warning you, Chelsea Clinton. They grow up way too fast!

This weekend was a special one for the author and activist who was celebrating baby Charlotte's first birthday. In a precious picture posted on social media, the mother-daughter duo was able to enjoy some story time before it was time for bed.

"Last book for Charlotte before bedtime on her first birthday!" she wrote on Twitter Saturday night. "Marc & I are so grateful every day to be her parents."

One day later, proud grandmother Hillary Clinton shared a campaign video that featured images of baby Charlotte. What came next was a message aimed at parents across the country.

"When I look at my new granddaughter, I think to myself, we're going to do everything we can to make sure she has opportunities in life," she explained. "But what about all the kids?"

She continued, "You should not have to be the grandchild of a former president to know that you can make it in America. That will be my mission as president to make sure I do everything I can, every single day, to knock down the barriers, to open up the doors so every child has a chance to live up to his or her's God given potential."

Putting politics aside, Chelsea is happy her mom has an active role in her daughter's life. In fact, watching her interact with Charlotte brings the mom nothing but good feelings.

"I love watching my mom read to Charlotte, sing to her, support her quite literally, because as we were talking earlier, Charlotte is starting to stand and she's trying to learn how to talk and there's a lot of actual support, not just sort of figurative support and nurturing," Chelsea shared with E! News. "I love seeing my mom as a grandmother."
