I like you

My son has this thing where he will repeat a phrase over and over. It's part of the whole being autistic thing and while he's at the higher end of the spectrum there are still things that remind me every day that he's on that spectrum. When he was younger it used to be just one word. Usually he would say it when he was mad or upset. The word 'Red' was a popular one for awhile.

Now that he's six he says phrases. For awhile now it's just been the need to tell Sam and I that he likes us. He'll just come up to us usually several times a day and say "Mommy (Daddy)." and we'll say, "Yes?" and he'll say. "I like you."

It's nice. I guess if this is the phrase he's hooked on now, I'm glad it's a nice one like that.
