You have an audience and everyone to tell you everything. You have assertion built into your position in the family and into your every word.
Isn't he cute, they say. What a precious gift, they say. We love you, but you must humble yourself under the mighty hand of God and stop pressing your way into every conversation. You are very special, but you must learn to be humble, or God will have to humble you the hard way, like He did Joseph. There is absolutely nothing uglier than a pompous foolish person. I would spare you that degradation. I love you enough to tell you, "stop interrupting people".
I can just imagine, Jacob shushing everybody to listen to what Joseph was saying. Wise or foolish, we stop what we are doing to amaze ourselves at the beauty of a little fellow, who we all love. God hates pride and will not abide it, from you or anybody!
