Typical conversation with my almost four-year-old. I answer about a million why questions a day. What's his name? What's hes doing? Wheres hes going? Howcome hes doing that? Why?, why?, why?, why?! I love his desire to know everything but it's tiring trying to come up with answers that will appease him. He will not ever take "I don't know" for an answer. Ever. He just keeps saying, "tell me mom, tell me!" over and over. So, I get to make a lot of stuff up. I have fun with it. We've come up with some really great names for people. Maybe that is why he has recently named his stuffed elephant "Boyza". Where on earth did he come up with that? Kaden is so fun.
