Such A (Good) Big Brother

Gabe love books. He has many a book memorized from Daddy reading to him every night before bed and Mommy reading to him before nap time. The other night I was in his room cleaning up and folding clothes, and had set up Anna in her Pea in the Pod chair to hang out in. Gabe comes in, grabs a book and starts reading his favorite "Cars" book about Lightning McQueen. I couldn't help but gush with pride at his amazing Big Brother skills. I said, "Aww Gabe, you're so cute!"
He replied, "I'm such a big brother Mom."
I said, "Yes, you're a very GOOD big brother, Gabe."
"Yeah, I'm such a big brother!"
"GOOD big brother, Gabe."
"Right. I am such a big brother!"
The word 'good' was frequently omitted from that statement, but he gets it. 
He is such a Big Brother. A (Good) Big Brother.
