4 petal white flower small lawn weed ID driving me nuts

Hi All,
I've figured out what most of my weeds are, but this one has me stumped. It looks a lot like Richardia (Pusley), but Richardia flowers have six petals, and mine has four.
It grows in my lawn, stays fairly short when unmowed, flowers at the end of the stalk, and at the next leafset down.
There's another picture of it on my site.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
