Eavesdropping

One of Cody's talents is listening to other people's conversations. If he's not getting into trouble for eavesdropping, he is getting the rest of the family in trouble by repeating everything we say.

For instance, this morning I was asking Don if he realized that Bo (Katelyn's boyfriend) had come to the house after we'd gone to bed. I was just making conversation; we'd gone to bed early and it wasn't a big deal. 

Several minutes later Cody said, "I don't think that's a good idea."

Confused because so much time had lapsed, I asked, "What's not a good idea Cody?"
  
He replied, "Bo coming over in the middle of the night."

I hope for Katelyn's sake that Cody doesn't repeat this conversation. It could be completely taken out of context. However, I do think it's special that Cody is acting concerned about his little sister. :)

I find that w/ my son often a stretch of time goes by as he is processing something. I have moved on at ADHD speed to 20 other things and need him to let me know just what it is that we're talking about..... but it's always rewarding to me to realize something has struck him and he's initiated commenting about it. Sounds like your son has a good sense of right and wrong and staying on top of things for you !
