Sebastian is my seven-year old and he says some of the funniest things–we have no idea where he gets his material since his mother and I are rather boring, serious people.

Sebastian is now seven (he will be eight in August) and has proven to be more than slightly competitive, which is in sharp contrast to his older brother.

This is not a recent development, however, as glimpses of this competitiveness were evident early on. I recently found this exchange that occurred four years ago when he was three years old:

Driving in the car today, Sebastian asked: “Daddy, are you driving fast?”

Me: “Fast enough, I guess.”

Sebastian:”Then why is that other car getting so far away from us?

Pause….

Seba: “Drive faster!”

I have no idea where he gets that…
