Mateos reminded me of this Christmas moment the other day when he tried to re-use his line....
We were at Maral's house and all the adults were seated around her dining room table finishing off some pizza. The kids were running ramshackle in the basement and occasionally on the first floor. There was some noise (indicative of a physical disagreement) and moment later Mateos appeared and recounted how Luca had wronged him somehow and hit him, etc. I was too moribund from eating to be motivated to do anything but ask Mateos if he could just let it go this time and keep playing. Mateos was good natured about it if a little disappointed. After a second's consideration he turned around and started to trot back to where everyone was playing. As he did so he called over his shoulder "I'll remember this in therapy."
That left most of the adults in a moment of disbelief -- 'did he really just say that?' -- and a small amount of hysterics. Upon question later, he told Lu and I it was something he had heard on SpongeBob.
