Me (the mom): “Oh, really?”

Joey: “Yes, look!”

He pointed to some blond peach fuzz on his neck (sweet, delicate, little-boy fuzz. Not a beard, just fuzz), then continued:

“Do you think it’s a little strange that I’m getting a beard?”

Me: “It is a little early.”

Joey: “I don’t know whether to take that as a compliment or not.”

Yea, me either.
