Why?

My mother told me this day would come.

Tonight, Taylor asked his very first "Why?" question.

Taylor (pointing to Burger King): We getting burgers there?
Me: No, we're getting them over there.
Taylor: Why?
Me: Because they're less expensive over there.
Taylor: Why?
I didn't answer his last question. I just grinned.

Now you've got to be quick on your feet and have an answer for everything. Enjoy knowing it all, the day soon follows where you won't know a single thing. Or so I'm told.

I never thought of it that way... Right now, to Taylor, I am omniscient!! I won't think about the coming days where I'll know less than his teenage self...

Lulu's question is "Where?" which is easy to answer when pointing out things like tall buildings but not so much for rainbows for some reason.
-"In the sky. Above the building."
-"Where?"
-"Right there. See the tree by the door?"
-"Yeah."
-"Look in the sky right above the tree."
-"Where?"
