The latest was while we were watching TV. The screen said, "for dawn". I said, "oh that's nice, someone made this movie for someone named 'Dawn' ". BIG MISTAKE! "Why did they say for Dawn?" "Because they made the movie for Dawn" "Why did that make a movie for Dawn?" "Well, maybe it was someone special in their life at the time" "Why were they special?" "Maybe it was someone who was important to them like their daughter or wife". "Why were they important to them?" "Well, some people, like you are special to me, like to show people they are important to them and maybe they wrote on the movie so that person would know they are special?" "Why...."

No need to be sorry... I laugh while it goes on too.

And as long as you are picturing my face like

you pictured it correctly.

I think that's what's scaring me the most.... I won't be able to answer the questions.

Either that or she'll know when I'm totally faking an answer.

At least once a week she gets the answer "I don't know why, let's look it up online" She is moving on to more complex questions though....we had takeout for dinner tonight at my MILs along with this conversation: Mommy, what are these containers the food is in? They're Styrofoam. What's Styrofoam? Well...it's stuff that they make containers out of because it is good for carrying food. What is it made out of? Umm....I'm really not sure, Brooke. I think mostly chemicals and stuff. What are chemicals? Just eat your french fries...
