Four is a great age to be. Here's why..
They aren't really babies any longer so
- no more bottle boiling
- no more carrying food/milk to malls
- no more arduous hours of burping (thank Gawd!)
- no more having to handle howling kids at night (Generally)
- no more carrying them around
- they understand/ share a lot of things
- they are great fun to talk to
- they can run small errands (get my phone, switch off the TV, find my keys) of course only when they want to
…. and they aren’t too grown up either so
- they do not have loads of homework
- they still love to cuddle and hug and kiss (I so hope they NEVER outgrow that)
- they still think you are the best (unlike the teens when they’ll get all judgmental)
- they still think your cooking is out of the world (even I don’t think that)
- they still don’t seem cheeky or oversmart just cute (another year and cute turns cheeky)
