Topic: The "whys" are here Posted: 12 February 2007 at 9:27pm |
Woohoo! So exciting! Ella has already been asking things like "where does the wind come from" etc etc but now the pointless "why's" are here!
Cute example: (most aren't so cute lol)
(kissing her goodnight) Me: "love you Ella"
her: "why?"
me: "because i do"
her: "why do you love me?"
me (smiling): "because you make me smile"
her: "why do i make you smile mummy?"
me: "because you do. good night love"
(I attempt to leave)
her: "can I make you smile mummy?"

hehehe, i love hearing the "why" examples, i'm so glad my boy is still at the first talking stage. i probably won't be so smug when he starts up the "why's" though, i can imagine they'll get old very quickly.

Yeah 'because I said' just doesnt do it these days. Funny how it just starts all of a sudden though and they dont get sick of asking. The other day we were early for something so i went for a drive around a new subdivison and had the old why are we driving round, I said to get ideas, why we need ideas, cos we are building a house, why are we building house, to live in, why, because, why, because, why, because but he never got sick of me saying because just kept asking why.

They say 3 is the worst age for it  Let's hope we'll get it over and done with now, with Ella being an early talker lol
