Why?
Thomas has finally arrived at "Why?" It took him longer to get here than it did his brother and sister, but now that he is here he is taking full advantage.
With Merry, I made up a reason every time she asked "why?" David got an answer 80% of the time. Poor Thomas is not so lucky, I find myself sticking to the facts of the "why" and if I am not in the mood "Because I am your father and I said so" is the response he gets probably 30-40% of the time . He is not easily deterred and as expected the "Why's" continue.
I love the "why's" and I am happy that Thomas has finally arrived. Making up answers really tests a dad's imagination.

Ian is three and still hasn't gone through the "why" phase. Not really looking forward to it.
