Why?

Kids are famous for asking a lot of questions. But honestly, you will never know exactly how many until you experience it for yourself! I took the liberty of writing down some questions that Kyle has been asking me lately. This is just a sample. Everything he says starts with, "You know what, Mama?" and a great deal of his sentences start with "Why." It is awesome to see the curiosity and thirst for knowledge as my little boy grows up and tries to understand the world. But sometimes I'm left asking myself, "Why me?" as I charge through my day as a wife, Mom, and now a walking encyclopedia of random knowledge! Here are some examples.

-Why do we have clothes in this world?
-Is Neptune where Looney Tunes live?
-Why do we have mirrors?
-How many minutes are there in three hours?
-Why do we have animals in this world?
-Why do we have clouds in this world? (yes, he really adds "in this world" to most of his questions).
-How old is Yosemite Sam? (Yes, he watches a lot of Looney Tunes)!
-How does Santa get all the toys?
-Is that a fun toy for me?
-What is farther? Hawaii or China?
-How many days until I will be a man?

Those are just a few of the random questions I get to answer on a daily basis. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, I have Brendan just starting to put together little sentences. Most notably, "Ah You!" (I Love You) <3

And now here's a question from me:

What is more wonderful in this entire world than my two little boys? <3

I would have to say NOTHING! :)
