Turning 4 is great because....


....you can decorate the cake yourself and then tell everyone how beautiful it is


....you can still blow out all the candles in one puff


....you don't have to make sense at all, and everyone still smiles benevolently


-- in other words when someone asks you what Curious George's name is, you can say with great confidence and authority, "Piglet!"


-- and when, before supper Mommy says, "Christopher, did somebody poke a finger into the birthday cake?" you can say fervently and charmingly, "I love you, Mommy, and I forgive you and I won't do it again!"

(Next time I need to apologize, I'm taking lessons from a 4-year old.)

-- The Lady
