When I was 4 there was talk of me skipping kindergarten and going straight to first grade. I was terrified at the thought of being with the older kids primarily because I was positive that, since I was younger, everyone else would tower above me and I'd only come up to the middle of their shins. Those first-graders are mighty intimidating, I tell you what.
