Tony (who has a birthday coming up):  I don't want to turn four.  I want to stay three and a half.
Me:  Why?
Tony (quite concerned):  Because four year olds don't like to play with cars anymore and I still want to play with my cars.
Me:  You don't have to stop playing with cars when you're four.  Lots of older kids still like cars.  It's OK.
Tony, visibly relieved, has nothing more to say.  And all I can think is:  Sweet Tony, you can stay three as long as you want.  In fact, please do.
