it really is just a phase tho... however you never want to discourage them from learning and asking questions. The CONSTANT "why why why" will end I promise I can only hope lol I love that she likes to ask questions but wow sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming lol yes it does. I set aside time for her to ask questions. We could look them up online or in a book or talk about them... I like to read but wow This child has had me looking up more things than when I went to school Kids can make you feel great or really stupid sometimes

When my son would ask why he couldn't have something, I would say to him "well, why do you think?" Kind of put it back on him. good one thats like the whole George Carlin line "How are you?" "I'm not unwell thankyou" which pissed them off because they have to figure that one out for themselves I LOVE George Carlin!

Isn't fun, though, to see the world through their eyes? Children keep us young.
