As it should be

Charlie, Mommy and Grandma are sprawled in the bow of the boat, cruising down the Cooper River towards the harbor, wind blowing in our hair, Charlie grinning from ear to ear.

Mommy: Charlie-bear, you are awesome.
Charlie: (Grin gets even bigger) Just like my Daddy.

Mommy, Charlie and Grandma all break into belly laughs, while Daddy obliviously captains the boat. 

Despite the fact that I know better, I climb back to the helm and recount the story...  Biggest grin of the day.
