This emotional state extends somewhat to the negative side, as he often gets his feelings hurt. He wears his heart out there for everyone to see and sometimes he pays a price for that openness. Seeing his heartbroken face when Nate rejects his hugs makes me realize I am ill-prepared for Alex's first real heartbreak.
The sweetness and complexity of love is part of why I enjoy age 4 so much. All the love I poured out these last few years has come back to me ten times over in just the last few months.
And to further endear himself to me, in sharp contrast to Nate's disinterest in being photographed, Alex is only too happy to be my subject.

Oh, the sweetness. Everything everyone said about four is so so true.
William is the same way. Over the years, I've often said, "You're my most favorite William in the whole wide word!" Now he'll say, "I love you in the whole wide world!" It's so sweet. The hugs, kisses, deep longing gazes. It IS like having a boyfriend on the side! LOL
Om nom nom. He's too cute for words. Send him my way so I can nibble on him a little. Those puppy dog eyes are likely to leave more than a few girls heartbroken in the years to come.
And isn't 4 amazing?
So sweet!
You know, I always thought there was a different meaning to that song......
I am so jealous. This is not the four I'm experiencing.
