The interrogation is constant and relentless and exhausting ...
What's his name?
What's dis song called?
Who sing dis song?
Where we go-ing?
When daddy be home?
What we ha-ving for dinner?
What's dat girl doooo-ing?
What's dat?
Where's mice baby doll?
Of course, it's also a little thrilling to see the world through her eyes and little mind. I love witnessing how much she learns everyday!
Well, it finally happened. Natalie took her constant questioning to a whole new level this evening.
MB: Honey, please don't spit. It's yucky. No spitting.
NHV: Mommy say no spitting?
MB: That's right, no spitting.
NHV: WHY no spitting, mommy?
MB: (shocked, amused) Because spitting isn't nice.
NHV: WHY spitting not nice, mommy?
Oh, boy, here we go ...
Natalie's new favorite word, "Why?"
My new most frequently used word - by default, "Because ... "
Won't be long, and I am sure to say, "Because I said so!" Groan!

OHhh my son is the same way and he is 10! One night after about 30 minutes of what if I had a google of this or that I said What if your lips were made of velcro?? He got quiet for a moment then said, " Well thenmy mouth would make that funny ripping sound every time I tried to talk."
*headdesk* I can't win..

Boo Boo is 4 and we still get TONS of questions....
Love it. "...mice baby doll?"

It's the other way around at our house right now.... I'm asking why, she's telling me because!
I always said I'd never turn into my parents...but it is SO much easier to say, "because I said so"...HAHAHA!!
