To enhance the visual impact of her school's annual Kite Olympics, Sophia makes a small kite and a large kite for a classroom display. For her small kite, Sophia sketches the kite on a grid with the points two inches apart, as shown below.

[asy]
for ( int x = 0; x <= 8; ++x )
{
    for ( int y = 0; y <= 9; ++y )
    {
        dot((x,y));
    }
}
draw((0,7)--(4,9)--(8,7)--(4,0)--cycle);
[/asy]

For the large kite, she squares both the height and width of the entire grid.

What is the number of square inches in the area of the small kite?
