Ha-ha! Reminds me of a story I've heard a week ago, the conversation between 4 and 2 years old (2 years old in time out for doing something really upsetting to mom). 4 yo coming to 2 yo and asking very loud: "Walter, what were you thinking? Give me an answer, now!" after that 2 yo said something, and 4 yo went on: "this answer is not good enough, think about it more and give be a better answer!" Those little kids echoing us in every possible way :)
I remember as a kid having a list of all the things I was not going to do or say that my mom said when I grew up and was a mother. I wasn't long into motherhood before I heard my mother's voice come out of my child and realized that there was only one way he could have learned those words...from my own lips. It was an "ah ha" moment.

Yep, hearing my own voice coming out of my childrens' mouths; not always my favorite, but usually very funny.
Hahah! Love it! Sometimes kids make us stop and realize what we are really sounding like through the day.
