Theo is definitely at that age - the age where I feel I could write almost everything down he said because it would be worth remembering for laughs later. Here are two from today:
On the way to the bathroom store today to look at shower heads (boring to most people especially a six-year-old!) -
Jack: Why do we all have to go to the store?
Charles: Jack, mom and dad are not here for your enjoyment only. We have errands to do today that take priority over going to the park.
Jack: Why couldn't we stay with Grandmother?
Charles: Jack, Grandmother is not going to take you to the park either. She has things to do right now as well. She too is not here just for your enjoyment.
Theo (very quickly and boldly): Yeah Jack. Grandmother is not here for our enjoyment, but Grandad is.
Tonight at Bible time - Jack asks a question that is very interesting but completely off topic.
Charles: Jack, what does this question have to do with Genesis 1?
Jack: Nothing, I was just curious.
Erin: We should have named you George (as in Curious George).
Theo: Yeah, and God should have made you a monkey!
I love four-year-olds.

I too enjoy Theo's age. I chuckle when I listen to him interacting with PBS children's shows by answering all the questions they ask. Maybe you should have named him George and God could have made him a monkey:)
