"Why" is the Question?!

       I knew it was inevitable....the day would come when Zoe would ask me WHY? That  day was June 1, 2011! Oh YAY!! Let me set the scenario, I was cooking dinner and she was "just starving Mommy!" So we had given her some goldfish to snack on until dinner was ready. She runs back in the kitchen and says "Mommy mo fish peas!" I tell her "No ma'am dinner will be ready in a few minutes." Well, are you ready for it? She looks up at me with those innocent blue eyes and asks "Why not Mommy?" Oh my.... Because I said so came to mind first, but I thought she wouldn't understand that, so I said because we are getting ready to eat yummy cubed steak with rice and gravy! "Umm..no; WHY not Mommy?" So it began the use of a vexatious word in question form she will forever use to find out the answers to innumerable questions!
       With each new word, phrase, or question she learns comes a new obstacle or query. I simply love it! No matter how irritating it may be I wouldn't change it for anything.  I just hope I will always be able to know the answers to her questions......we shall see!
