My younger son Ian's reaction when Alex went to swim lessons but he did not (his age group was all filled up for this session) was awful (but also kind of funny, just because he's so cute)-- he went upstairs, crept into his bed, and curled up in a state of abject depression; when I asked him what was wrong, he said, "I want to be BIG-- I want to be big like you, Daddy."
It's adorable how the perspective young children is so naive, like how their neighborhood can seem as vast as the whole world, how 5 minutes can seem like an eternity, and how a little 5'8" guy can seem so BIG.
