Bragging would look like this: Mrs. B forgot to mention that her nephew, my son and Cutest Boy in the Universe, is a mere 20 months old and therefore a child prodigy. It would be a lot less impressive if he had just turned 4, at which point we fully expect him to be able to build a working nuclear reactor using only a safety pin, legos, and the uranium centrifuge which he cobbled together last week.
I was assuming that most of the people who read this blog have a good (if somewhat vague) idea of how old my nephew is...

And Z, you're not supposed to brag about your son...I can brag, since I didn't make him, but you're not supposed to...

Hmm,
Moms can't brag. Dads can. That's what men do.

No bragging here, just stating a relevant fact.

But that would be just excessive. At 4, you can hardly expect him to build a working nuclear reactor without Q-tips.

However, if he does, I, among several Federal agencies, would be impressed.
