The Three Letter Word

It's happened....

I guess I knew that it would, but I thought I had more time. I thought I had protected them enough, sheltered them enough, picked their friends wisely.....but it still happened.

My sweet little angel, Lil N was the culprit. How could she have learned that word? Who did she hear it from? How does she know how to use it in a sentence correctly?

When she was uttering it out, I just looked at her in disbelief. She said it over and over and over again. I wanted to put my hands over my ears......

No!! This can't be happening already.

The word.......






WHY?


Why Mom why? Why? Why? Why?

And so it begins....

Now ...we must bestow upon you the wise words of wisdom, the answer to the question is
"BECAUSE I said so!" OR
"That is God's plan."

Suzan said...

yes, we use the "Because God wanted it that way"...
Joshua's 3 y/o pre-school teacher said 'curiosity' is a Godly trait. he really liked the 'why' word, and still does. hmmm.
