They can be very caring.4-year-old: Wow, Dad.
Me: What? 4: You eat a lot of pizza. Not all heroes wear capes. — James Breakwell (@XplodingUnicorn) August 22, 2018
They ask important questions.My 4 year old sister handed me her plate after I got the wrong order at a restaurant because she “doesn’t want sissy to be sad”... bottom line people are not born mean.

Very important questions.My 4-year-old at the beach: “Is there a way to get me on the sand without the sand touching me???” ?

They're very self assuredMy four year old on the toilet just now. “So, if drinking makes you pee pee and eating makes you poo...what does guacamole do?”

And becoming more grown up by the minute.My 4 year old son just told me, “I’m a big kid now, Dad, and I can say bad words!”

They even might be seriously getting their sh*t together.My 4 year old daughter just called my 7 year old niece to find out how her first day of school was?? I almost cried! They are growing fast!?

They always have an interesting take on life.The fact that my 4 year old remembers to floss her teeth, not once, but twice a day, tells me she's the more responsible one. Shes the parent now.

And can sometimes be surprisingly profound.4 year old: what colour is the milk in your boobies? Me: white, like the cows milk you drink. 4yo: I thought it was blue. How do you make it? Me: I have milk ducts in my boobs. 4yo: I thought you had tiny cows living in your stomach that made it. Me: ?

Like, seriously profound.My 4-year-old thinks people who “don’t make beautiful noise should have to stay home.”
I concur. — Mommy Owl (@Lhlodder) August 14, 2018
But still young enough to want your affection.We took a beach vacation and my 4 year old had never been in the ocean before. While happily splashing in it he yelled, “I love the ocean!” I said, “It’s beautiful right?” And he said, “It tastes like fries”
