We got our very first original “Why?” question from James today. He was sitting at the kitchen table for lunch and looked quizzically at me and asked out of nowhere, “Why is Daddy a teacher, mommy?” I was thoroughly impressed. I expected the “Why?” questions to start simply with “Why?” when told to do something… but, no, he actually put thought into it and formulated a very impressive question.
He didn’t seem to like my answer “because Daddy loves music and loves kids” and instead insisted that Daddy was a teacher because he (James) made a mess on the kitchen table at lunch time. Okay. Maybe Daddy is a teacher because James made a mess on the kitchen table… yeah… that explains a lot! *hehe*
Also heard at lunchtime was this little gem from James. I was talking to James about Rudy’s BBQ sause: “I don’t like spicy this day. When I grow into a man, then I will like spicy.”
