I have been told by many parents that at some point, the question “Why” is asked every other minute. But what I am getting is less “why” and more “Daddy…..” and then followed up with a list of questions.

I was driving the boys home this weekend and literally every other minute I was asked a question that started with Daddy…..

Daddy, where is the car beside us going?
Daddy, when are we going to see Mommy?
Daddy, what is for dinner?
Daddy, are we going to the toy store?
Daddy, are we going to have pizza for dinner?

You get the idea.

Sure, I wanted to listen to the radio and rock out to some Wade Bowen, but instead, I listened to my kids ask me questions for 45 minutes and I loved it. I love that they want to learn. I love that they want to know more and trust me that I’m going to give them a good answer.

So last night, as I put the boys down and Baby A said Daddy….. it was simply followed with, I love you and then I closed the door and he and his brother went to sleep.
