4 years old

Yup, he's that. We had a little tub of chocolate ice cream with four lighted candles on it to celebrate, last night. And a McDonald's party at the West Coast branch last Friday evening with his classmates and cousins. Has it been this fast?

Some gems he can come up with, when we explained death to him at Pope John Paul II's recent passing: "Why God is so good, make people die?"

Or, "Daddy, I want eternal life!" OK to be fair he's actually asking for that Jeff Buckley song to be played on the car stereo.

To me, he said once, "When you eat too much, you'll get a baby." To me, mind. "If daddy eats too much he'll just grow bigger".

And he's become quite good with remote-controlled toy cars and Tocar and Colin McRae and Need For Speed - Sean's got a Logitech steering wheel and pedals set which Matt operates with ease now.
