It means you are an apprentice. This is a reference to an old Kung Fu movie where the trainer called his apprentice "grasshopper".

The original reference is to an old Chinese proverb about the ant and the grasshopper. The ant worked hard and prepared for winter, the grasshopper laughed at the ant and played. Winter came and the ant was warm and well fed, the grasshopper died. The teacher was trying to tell the student that he should be the ant but was acting like the grasshopper.

When someone refers to you as their little grasshopper it is a term of endearment. They are probably just saying you are young.
