I'm guessing Ali and Case hear that from time to time.
I do get compliments like that fairly often. I usually follow it up with something like, "Thanks for that. We're very proud of him, but like all other kids, he does have his moments." Which is usually followed up by knowing smiles from all parents within earshot.

And it's true. I could just as easily start a thread titled something like, "How you know your child really is the Devil's Spawn"
