a bit young for shaving

The other night I was out for dinner with friends/business partners and Mari was taking care of The Boy solo. He started to shave.
They were in the bathroom getting ready for bed when The Boy picked up my electric beard trimmer, said "Daddy" and began to drag the business-end of the shaver over his face. According to Mari, he even turned his face this way and that, and made the funny faces a man makes while shaving: scrunching the face to the left or right; elongating the jaw; and so on.
