Out of the mouth of babes

Do you think it is a bad thing that Max asked me if I was tired and then told me I should go lay down and take a nap?

Or, yesterday, when I told him he was cute, he got a big smile on his face and said "I'm smart"?

Or, when I told him I really liked his singing he told me to clap?

Or, when I asked him a few days ago if he wanted a diaper and he told me "I want to be a bare bottomed boy"?

He's got a memory on him that one. And, hearing your words come back to you in the same tone is something else (funny, and good, and humorous sometimes and annoying and telling and scary at others). The latest is when you ask him if he wants something and he does, he will say "ohhh, yes!" in precisely the way that he has heard me (not that I realized that until I heard it parroted back)
