Mommy-"Van, please pick up Howie off this restaurant floor"
Van-"Why mommy?"
Mommy-momentarily stunned into silence..."because it's dirty"
Van-"Why mommy?"
Mommy-suddenly realizing it's not just a trick question...he's really asking it. "Because people might have dropped food on it"
Van-"Why mommy?"
Mommy-"Because they were messy"
Van-"Why mommy?"
So you get the picture...the "why" phase begins, the tough questions are right around the corner. We better get the cliff notes on useless facts and trivia now. I have a feeling this kid isn't going to accept "because I'm the mommy" as his answer.

SO so cute!! Loved the way you wrote that out, and made me laugh outloud so that bailey wanted to know 'why'! haha. That 'why' can drive you batty! Bailey started that about 8 months ago and then stopped within the day. Maybe she just KNOWS everything already! haha Love that pic of Van too. He certainly is Handsome Van!
There is something so irrepressibly joyful about the expressions at the end of the slide. Why? It's over, and they're happy...why?
Enjoy the explanations this age (and beyond) brings! :)
